Solar and Wind Power In The North Dakota Winter

Here is a quick video of our wind generators (2 Air-X 400W )and solar panels (760W of Evergreen Solar)on a gloomy January day. We make most of our power via the wind in thies months only a small percent by the sun, I know we need about a 70 degree tilt on them but that something we are looking into but for now we have to clear the snow about once a week to gain optimal efficiency. A 760 watt array making under 100 Watts in the winter kinda BLOWS.

Thanks for Posting

In Winter and cloudy day a Solar-panel is useless but

your Wind-Generator has some potentional power... great.

Thanks for posting this.

It look like you have a great set up for capturing earths energies.. earth wind and fire??
