WIND TURBINE OUTPUT FIGURES

The following figures were produced by the University of Strathclyde in a wind tunnel with ideal conditions at constant speed for the specified number of hours. None of the figures shown for production would be able to compete with production of a similar class ReDriven up-wind active yaw turbine. Figures from the Proven WT 15000 would be more comparable to the ReDriven 5kW production figures.
