Documents

This page provides a number of useful documents that you can download or read directly on your computer. All the documents are in PDF files, so you will need the free Acrobat reader to view them. Most computers already have this installed; if not, click on the section at the bottom of the page to download and install the reader.

In some cases, we have Zipped a set of PDF documents into a single ZIP file. Download the ZIP file and unzip it, to find the individual PDF documents.

Brochure and prices

Our new brochure and price list for 2009 are now available. You can download them from here; click on the link below and it will open in a new window.

Power Curve

This PDF document shows the power output for all three of the turbines we sell, for varying wind speeds. This is of general interest but is also very useful if you want to use the Wind Estimator tool on the Carbon Trust web site. This was launched in March 2009 and the following is an extract from the Press Release :

"By inputting a postcode, details about the surrounding landscape and the type of turbine, users can now calculate the annual mean wind speed as well as the likely energy generation and carbon savings. The 'Wind Yield Estimation Tool' is freely available on the Carbon Trust website and can be accessed here:
www.carbontrust.co.uk/wind-estimator"

Power curves for 15 kW, 6 kW and 2.5 kW turbines

Method statement

A useful document, used when seeking Planning Permission, is a Method Statement. This shows how the tower is erected. A copy of the Method Statement can be downloaded here. Choose from the list below according to the turbine power and the tower height.

The form allows you to enter your details and then print it out. Click on the PDF icon to download the file.

6kW or 15 kW turbine on 15m tower
6kW turbine on 9m tower

Foundations

We recommend that you visit the Proven Energy web site to get information on building foundations to support their towers. Click on the following link to go to their web site.
