westwind 20kw power output curve

The graph below shows the typical power produced (in Watts) for the Westwind 20kW at different wind speeds. Some pretty serious power output if you have the right site. The available output information for the Westwind series is limited to 17m/s so to produce a more complete graph we have extrapolated the last few values.

wind turbine blade diameter

Blade diameter is an important thing to look at when comparing turbines, since it affects how much power can be captured from the wind. This turbine has a blade diameter of 10.40 metres.

How windy? If you are thinking of buying a Westwind 20kW, we'd advise measuring your wind resource first. Not just because we sell anemometers but it means you will have a much better idea of how much power you might generate.
