| 520 | |a This book provides a cohesive guide to achieving successful small wind installations. It is a comprehensive information resource from one of the world's most experienced small wind professionals, covering all the key issues for small wind system development, from site and machine selection to international standards compliance. Engineers who are tasked with planning and developing these small wind systems, from choosing the best site and accurately estimating likely power output to obtaining proper permitting and troubleshooting operational inefficiencies, will find this book an essential reference. Simply utilizing the processes followed in the creation of large-scale wind farms will lead to certain failure; optimization of project development for small wind applications is a necessity. In all phases of the process, there are key concerns to undertake and guidelines to follow that, if properly taken into account, can literally save project planners and managers tens of thousands of dollars and untold months of potential development delays. Establishes technical guidelines for the growing number of engineers called upon to plan small wind projects who do not yet have great amounts of real-world experience, giving them an invaluable head startIdentifies and explains the critical issues for small wind installations, including siting, turbine choice, applications & permitting, economics, load management, and grid integration, supporting informed decision making throughout the processCase studies from real projects demonstrate key considerations for success, complete with template spreadsheets and measurements needed to support project planning effortsIncludes reports on the most commonly used turbines and designs and synthesizes and clarifies relevant DOE documentation, saving readers endless hours of research. | ||
