The working horse today is typically a 600 kilowatt machine with a tower height of some 40 to 50 metres and a rotor diameter of around 43 metres. The price range goes from the cheapest turbine model without any options to a special low wind model on a tall tower with a large rotor diameter. Freight costs are not included. Currency conversion requires a Netscape 3.0 browser. We'll return to that in a couple of pages.
Energy production is measured in kilowatt hours.
For single turbines or small clusters of turbines the costs will usually be somewhat higher. On the next page we will discuss installation costs further. Copyright 1998 Soren Krohn. All rights reserved.
