    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_wind_turbine

    Diagram of a small wind turbine and repeller. A 1 kW micro windmill installed in the suburbs of Lahore, Pakistan. Small wind turbine power output. Small wind turbines, also known as micro wind turbines or urban wind turbines, are wind turbines that generate electricity for small-scale use.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

    The generator, which is approximately 34% of the wind turbine cost, includes the electrical generator, [64] [65] the control electronics, and most likely a gearbox (e.g., planetary gear box), [66] adjustable-speed drive, or continuously variable transmission [67] component for converting the low-speed incoming rotation to high-speed rotation ...

  5. Laddermill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laddermill

    A laddermill kite system is an airborne wind turbine consisting of a long string or loop of power kites.The loop or string of kites (the "ladder") would be launched in the air by the lifting force of the kites, until it is fully unrolled, and the top reaches a height determined by designers and operators; some designers have considered heights of about 30,000 feet (9,100 meters), but the ...

  6. Wind power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_power

    To generate almost all electricity from wind annually requires substantial interconnection to other systems, for example some wind power in Scotland is sent to the rest of the British grid. [60] On a monthly, weekly, daily, or hourly basis—or less—wind might supply as much as or more than 100% of current use, with the rest stored, exported ...

  7. Vortex Bladeless - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex_Bladeless

    Vortex Bladeless is attempting to produce a wind turbine that isn't actually a turbine. All generators require a magnetic field, a conductor and motion to produce electricity. A small generator can only produce a small amount of power. It takes a lot of energy (movement) to make a generator turn.
