Proven Energy - 2.5kw Complete System Kit - 36' Grid Tie
Proven Energy is the world's leading supplier of small wind turbines. Their high performance turbine is the result of almost thirty years of inspiration, innovation and development.
Generates 2.5kW, and is a similar height to a telegraph pole. The Proven 2.5 can make a substantial contribution to the power required by electrical appliances in a standard 3 bedroom house. The robust 2.5 is also ideal for small lighting systems (Network Rail Stations, Sainsbury's) and offshore power (Shell North Sea Oil Platforms).
In winds above 12m/s or 25mph, the Proven's blades twist to limit power in response to high rpm. This unique way of dealing with high winds not only protects the unit, but allows it to produce power in the most extreme winds.
NOTE: To qualify for the warranty this unit needs to be installed by a factory qualified installer. (Dealers/Installers please contact us for training opportunities). Package systems do not include: Installation, concrete, rebar, or wiring.
