2. Grid-tie inverter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tie_inverter

   A grid-tie inverter converts direct current (DC) into an alternating current (AC) suitable for injecting into an electrical power grid, at the same voltage and frequency of that power grid. Grid-tie inverters are used between local electrical power generators: solar panel , wind turbine , hydro-electric , and the grid.

3. Raum Energy Inc. - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raum_Energy_Inc.

   Raum Energy Inc. was a company based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada which designed and manufactured small-scale wind turbines, grid-tie inverter and battery charge controller systems. These systems, which could run off of either wind or photovoltaic generated power, were specifically designed for use with residential-scale applications.

4. Grid-tied electrical system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tied_electrical_system

   A grid-tied electrical system, also called tied to grid or grid tie system, is a semi-autonomous electrical generation or grid energy storage system which links to the mains to feed excess capacity back to the local mains electrical grid. When insufficient electricity is available, electricity drawn from the mains grid can make up the shortfall ...

5. Wind turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_turbine

   Small wind turbines may be used for a variety of applications including on- or off-grid residences, telecom towers, offshore platforms, rural schools and clinics, remote monitoring and other purposes that require energy where there is no electric grid, or where the grid is unstable. Small wind turbines may be as small as a fifty-watt generator ...

6. Small wind turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_wind_turbine

   Turbine blades for small-scale wind turbines are typically 1.5 to 3.5 metres (4 ft 11 in – 11 ft 6 in) in diameter and produce 0.5-10 kW at their optimal wind speed. [1] Most small wind turbines are horizontal-axis wind turbines , [ 2 ] but vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) may have benefits in maintenance and placement, although they are ...

7. Wind power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_power

   Grid-connected domestic wind turbines may use grid energy storage, thus replacing purchased electric power with locally produced power when available. The surplus power produced by domestic microgenerators can, in some jurisdictions, be fed into the network and sold to the utility company, producing a retail credit for the microgenerators ...
