Rural Hotel
Installation carried out in La Mancha, a rural complex of 3 houses with maximum capacity of 16 – 18 people. This installation has been optimized to maximize the amount of energy that the Wind Turbine is able to give, for this a complete study of turbulence and location of the wind turbine was absolutely necessary.
The idea of the study and location of the mini wind turbine has been focused on maximising the energy produced in kwh / day. Regardless of the punctual power that the machine can achieve on a windy day, what matters is that the amount of daily energy is the most possible and in a constant way.
In matters of wind turbines, location isn't always taken into account, usually the simplest option is to install the wind turbine in the place nearest the house where it is estimated that there is enough wind, but without a study of the required area. To perform this installation, an analysis of the terrain was done to determine its rugosity, then the calculations of turbulence were made and finally the exact point was established at the optimum height according to the studies.
The characteristics of the installation is that the hub is located at 21.5 m, and the tower is at a distance of more than 140 metres in a straight line, which implies a total distance of 180m cable, the nearest obstacle is situated around 135 m and has a height of 6.5 m, this strategic location causes the turbulence index to be only 1% and the energy production of the wind turbine is above 70% of its nominal for more than 8 hours per day of wind that the area has.
The study and the optimisation of this type of installation along with a suitable wind turbine which enables us to maximise the efficiency of the installed equipment in such a way that this installation supports:
- 1 fridge
- 20 light points
- 2 televisions
- 1 water pump
- 1 computer
- Small electric appliances
Puntualmente cuando esta el complejo ocupado:
- Hasta 3 Neveras
- 80 Puntos de Luz
- 4 Televisores
- 1 Bomba de agua
- 1 Ordenador
- Pequeños electródomésticos

Customer´s opinion
Greetings from agroturismo calixto.
In first place I’d like to take my hat off to the machine you’ve achieved, I’d spent years waiting for something like this, I’ve been offered several like this but I’ve never been convinced, this is the ideal wind turbine for the Mancha and its winds; it’s been worth it to wait and calculate everything.
I have already had days of wind in Calixto and at the moment the performance of the wind turbine meets the predicted calculations, counting on the inevitable loss of the cable, especially due to the heat of the day that is still going on (at night there are fewer losses).
I would have liked to reach a hub height of 25 metres, but, well, 21 is quite good. I believe that we have avoided the turbulence from trees and the house well.
Incredible noise reduction, many people have already seen it and no one has told me that it makes any noise, this was a big glitch facing the end customer to decide on having the mini wind turbine.
I have learnt a lot with you and this project, and would be delighted to work with you with whatever you would like.
We we be in touch. Kind Regards
Miguel Angel
