>> What is Wind map for Greek Islands Wind Turbine, Kefalonia?




The island has great wind resources that are above average and making your site a vable wind site. The average mean wind speed is:

6-7 m/s which is to 13.4 to 15.7 mph

Being coastal is always an advantage because of the strength and continuity that wind builds up as it traverses water. So, being lakeside, seaside, or waterfront is good. Especially if the predominant wind direction is normally coming in from the direction of the water.

Post New HO, High Output Rooftop Wind Systems, Promotion Reply with quote
Hello Everybody,

I have been really busy working on and testing the new systems. This new system is our new HO (High Output) system. I am building a new system on my exterior garage that features 3 turbines at 1180 watts ea. and 6 solar panels at 117 watts ea. So, on my home I'm installing an HO-4.2kW. The new systems represent the most advanced and capable renewable energy system for the home.. period.

We invented the rooftop turbine kit, patented inventions to make home power work, and perfected the wind/solar hybrid home. So, now we bring you the next level in home electric power.. The HO-4.2kW.

Before I tell you about the systems, here's the DEAL. For the next few days I am selling the HO System at the same price as our popular Grid-Tie 850watt and related kits. So, in all sizes it's 160% more power for same price. That's just till the supplies run out. If you are serious, call me and talk and I'll answer any questions you have. I expect these systems to go in about 2 to 3 days from this post. After that, I will be posting the kits for sale at full retail price. These systems will be much more expensive.. They are 160% power of prior systems, so buying now is a very good deal for all dealers and customers of WindEnergy7 LLC.

Taking orders personally by phone only on this promotion. Be glad to answer any questions and consult with you about the system.

All Grid-Tie Capable:
=============
These HO systems are all grid tie ready but can easily run Off-Grid if necessary.

Complete Energy Security:
=================
The systems feature emergency power backup with 4x power, wind, solar, battery, and grid for ultimate energy security in your residence or business. These will run great with a grid-tie or not, and are all UL1741 ready.

Choice in Size:
=========
These new HO systems can be bought in 3 different kit sizes. Kits can be upgraded to next larger size. Kits can be stacked into larger and larger Wind/Solar hybrid arrays for commercial buildings. Example 30 rooftop turbines and 60 solar panels on a warehouse building to a 42kW Grid-Tied system. Kits can be bought with quantity discounts built right into our website pricing.

HO-4.2kW
======
This new HO 3 turbine 6 panels system is a whole house 4.2kW (4242 watt) rooftop wind solar hybrid system. It's basically same as our previous systems but slight improvements, more production, more output for your home electric powr.

HO-2.8kW
======
This new HO 2 turbine 4 panels system is a whole house 2.8kW (2828 watt) rooftop wind solar hybrid system. It's basically same as our previous systems but but slight improvements, more production, more output for your home's energy.

HO-1.4kW
======
This new HO 1 turbine 2 panels system is a whole house 1.4kW (1414 watt) rooftop wind solar hybrid system. It's basically same as our previous systems but but slight improvements, more production, more output for your residential energy.

Anyone wanting a small wind turbine, fill out the contact form and I can connect you with the dealer for your area. There are still areas open for new dealers but county territories and entire states are being established now, a few states completely established. So, if you are interested in becoming a dealer fill out the same form and we can see if your area may still be open.

If you just want to look at the wind/solar hybrid kits we have for home energy or to buy one online Buy Home Wind/Solar Here

Government Tax Incentives, Credits
-----------------------------------------
Our Wind/Solar Hybrid systems are qualified for government tax crdedits of 30%. So, for your investment made in these systems the government tax incentives are 30% within one year that you get back from the IRS. So, basically the government will pay for almost 1/3 of your investment made in your new home energy system.

Improvement in Home Or Property Value
-----------------------------------------------
Of course that's not all, as soon as your system is up, you have improved your home value by atleast an equal amount of the investment. Your green energy home is more likely to sell than others with no home generation or emergency power system. Think about it. Look at homes for sale.. Can any of them generate their own free electricity, how many can compete with such a solid green energy capability like your home has. It's an attention getter and will bring people to see what it's about if you ever need to sell, your home has a dramatic edge.

Free Green Power
---------------------
In addition to your home's improved value, 30% government incentive, you will get free reliable electricity every day. The systems are designed for reliable power output for the next 30 years or so. With every increase of the utility company power your investment gets better all the time. Utility costs are rising all over and will accelerate over the next few years.

Wind Only, or Wind+Solar?
-------------------------------
First options in choosing your kit are, wind only, or wind AND solar. You'll notice that in the name description and the model numbers wind/solar, or WS, means kit has solar panels in kit. Having a hybrid wind AND solar system is really going to make it a more consistant green energy system. If you're on a budget, get the wind and you can always add solar later, we will always help you upgrade these systems, it's all based on low price point to get into home power. We can't all afford a giant windmill or solar system, these are affordable. Below is a graph showing the weather cycles of wind/solar and why wind/solar hybrid is so much better than solar only, or wind only systems.



How Much Energy & Budget
-------------------------------
The kits scale up by adding more wind and solar, from 1 turbine to three turbines. If you want a config that isn't listed, Call and I can direct you to a page to purchase larger systems. I actually recommend the smaller systems in most cases because my systems are so easy to add on another unit later, very modular, clear upgrade path. We have configures systems up to 6 turbines in a system, so that's up to 5.1 KW or 5100 watts of hybrid power...

Grid-Tie or Off-Grid?
------------------------
Grid-Tie is more costly but you can tie directly to the home's panel and power goes TO AND FROM the grid. You can actually run the meter backwards, selling Excess Generation to the local utility company. More cost and red-tape, but a really nice way to go if you have the time and budget
to work it out. Grid-Tie Forum

Off-Grid is a way to get started easier, quicker, with less cost and red-tape. Personally, I run Off-Grid because it's so much more economical to build and add to my systems. Additionally, my local Utility does not pay fair prices for my power and it's not a very fair deal for me to go to all that expense. ALSO, You can always upgrade to Grid-Tie later and it's all easily upgradeable anytime. So, I recommend the Off-Grid cheaper systems for starting out. Off-Grid Forum

Here's a link of some pre-sale questions that you may find helpful .

Post Why Charging Me Extra, Crating to Europe? Reply with quote
>> Hello, I am wanting to know why I am being charged extra
>> cost for crating to ship to me in EUROPEAN UNION? Isn't
>> this covered in the shipping cost?

Hello Ian, There is a law covering exports to the EU and most other countries which dictates the type of wood that can be used. Since all my suppliers and manufacturers ship from within the US, if I export, I have to create a skid and crating completely of formed wood. This keeps pests from being shipped from country to country.

Additionally, most of the insureres for export sea freight REQUIRE that a third party crating service is used. This gives them a third party to reference for contents verification as well as it makes sure crating/packing is well done. Exporting a system to europe is or any other country is no place to cut corners, so professional crating, insured, best way to go. Thanks for your business

Post Who Is My Local Home Wind Turbine Dealer? Reply with quote
>> wondering who is dealer in my area, and can i purchase just
>> the wind turbine without the solar panels, for grid tie system.

Hi Rob, I will have to look at the map to see if there's a dealer near enough to you. We don't sell just wind systems because we have it all tuned in as a hybrid system now. Wind can work OK but is just not as consistent. Like a solar only system, wind only is an incomplete system. I have been solar only, wind only, have done it all and worked with all kinds of systems, wind/solar hybrid is the result of all that. It's what works.

Why would you want a wind only system?

What is wrong with some solar in your system?

Our full research and development has gone into Wind/Solar Hybrid systems. We have long proven that wherever there is wind AND sun, BOTH should be used. We proved out that any wind power needs solar and any solar power should have wind. The goal in an energy system is consistant delivery of energy, day, night, winter, summer. As it turns out, wind and solar have offsetting strength and weakness in daily and annual resource cycles. When you have these systems to test an analyse, it's a very clear conclusion.

Day/Night, wind works at night, solar does not.

Summer/Winter, wind is stronger in winter, solar is weaker.

Hello,

You will need a 4.2kW system to get close to carrying all that I think. But many opt for doing most of their energy. What will actually carry your loads needs to be measured against your kwH (kilowatt hours). Square footage and dollars can be misleading because people's usage varies per sq/ft and their cost per kwH can vary. But having said that, it's usually a budget concern of what's affordable to a consumer. All of the systems will pay for themselves, it's more a matter of what a consumer can afford to start their system. The smaller systems are equally as cost effective as a larger system.

See New Home Wind Turbine Videos

A whole house system 4.2kW that will do all that residence is currently about $17,000 on hardware and will cost about $3,000 in additional installation costs. That depends on who/where it's installed because many people will get a better deal on installation labor, or do most of it themselves. Installs go from completely self install DIY wind turbines to complete turn-key install by one of our dealer installers. The support comes free with your system and includes supporting your installers and anyone involved to assist in making your system a success.

If you fill out our cotact form, you will get allot of info automatically by filling out that form. We can help decide what size system fits you. Things we need to know is, geographic location, average kwH Used a month, what your budget is to start a wind/solar project.

Hi Mike,

Any home site in the US is a good site for a home energy system from WindEnergy7 LLC. So, yes, without even looking, I can say that your home is a good candidate for a home energy system. Here are my criteria for this.

Home Energy System Criteria:
-----------------------------------
(A) Do you use electricity?
(B) Does the sun shine, and wind blow?

So, yes, my belief after using wind and solar for a few years is yes, you should have a home energy system started. Sounds a little too simple, but yes, unless I live under a rock or in a cave, I will have a home energy system, wind. solar, or both. Even if you do live in a cave, wind and or sun must be in your yard or property somewhere. So that is the question, not as much whether you should have a home energy system, but whether wind, solar, or both.

Solar Energy Crteria:
------------------------
(A) Do you have sunshine anywhere on your property, this includes of course, the roof. Unless you live under a rock, or in a cave, you have sunshine and thus you should be using solar power. Todays solar energy systems are great, efficient and reliable for residential home use.

Wind Energy Criteria:
-------------------------
(A) If you review the wind map, a cahart of wind data for your geographic location, use US DOE (department of energy) data. Does your area fall in a zone 2 or higher? If so, yes, you should have some wind power in your home energy system. Todays wind energy systems are great, efficient and reliable for residential home use. The new, patented rooftop wind turbines can sit out of the way and are easy to put on any home or outbuilding. And, if you prefer a tower or have room for one, we sell those too.

Wind powered home energy can be cost-effective and successful if the average wind speed is 9 miles per hour (mph) or more. In the DOE wind maps, a zone 2 is about 12 miles per hour (mph) and thus if you have zone 2 or better, wind power resources are available to make energy for your home.

Why Wind and Solar Together?
-----------------------------------
Our full research and development has gone into Wind/Solar Hybrid systems. We have long proven that wherever there is wind AND sun, BOTH should be used. We proved out that any wind power needs solar and any solar power should have wind. The goal in an energy system is consistant delivery of energy, day, night, winter, summer. As it turns out, wind and solar have offsetting strength and weakness in daily and annual resource cycles. When you have these systems to test an analyse, it's a very clear conclusion.

Day/Night, wind works at night, solar does not.

Summer/Winter, wind is stronger in winter, solar is weaker.


As an early adopter of green technology, testing immediately showed that a solar system with no wind power is good, consistant, but weaker in winter, inactive at night. Wind adds depth and consistancy to energy production.

When wind speed doubles, the power delivered is generally 8 times as great.. So ( 2 x wind = 8 x power ) So, on a normal day your wind system is just touching the surface of what it is capable of. But on windy days and nights, in stormy weather, wind power is very, very productive.

Cloudy/Clear, cloudy day more likely to be stormy, less sun, more likely to have higher wind speed.. See how that works.

So, when you invest into a home energy system, you want wind AND solar, you should go with a company and system that understands this. Look at the focus of the manufacturer. If they focus solely on wind, they are oblivious to the tuning issues of wind energy. What about a still summer day with no wind? If they focus solely on solar energy, what about the cloudy days, dark nights, weak sun in winter?

This is one reason that you should work with WindEnergy7 LLC. As an early adopter of home energy, we use it ourselves, we already know how to tune it and configure a system to deliver reliably, day in, day out. The view outlined above is painfully obvious to any novice buyer, as it should be to anyone who is in the wind or solar business. So, this is one of the reasons that I know a customer is better off with our products than any other wind or solar provider. Not only do competitors not get it, they don't deliver it. IT?

Solutions, Technology, Innovations, Support, Training, and know how. Others are not in fact competitors to WindEnergy7 LLC. They are not competitors at all, people want solutions, technology, innovation, support, training, IT'S WHAT WE DO. IT'S WHAT WE KNOW.

WindEnergy7 has no (actual competitors). Others are selling parts, hardware, that's it. We won't even sell parts, we don't want people out there toiling unsuccessfully with our products and using or configuring them in a way that won't be successful. People selling parts, what do they care, they sold a part, they are done. As a customer, you are left hanging with nothing but parts and hardware.

Others in Home Energy? They are not competitors at all, people want solutions, technology, innovation, support, training, IT'S WHAT WE DO. IT'S WHAT WE KNOW.

Government Tax Incentives, Credits
-----------------------------------------
Our Wind/Solar Hybrid systems are qualified for government tax crdedits of 30%. So, for your investment made in these systems the government tax incentives are 30% within one year that you get back from the IRS. So, basically the government will pay for almost 1/3 of your investment made in your new home energy system.

Improvement in Home Or Property Value
-----------------------------------------------
Of course that's not all, as soon as your system is up, you have improved your home value by atleast an equal amount of the investment. Your green energy home is more likely to sell than others with no home generation or emergency power system. Think about it. Look at homes for sale.. Can any of them generate their own free electricity, how many can compete with such a solid green energy capability like your home has. It's an attention getter and will bring people to see what it's about if you ever need to sell, your home has a dramatic edge.

Free Green Power
---------------------
In addition to your home's improved value, 30% government incentive, you will get free reliable electricity every day. The systems are designed for reliable power output for the next 30 years or so. With every increase of the utility company power your investment gets better all the time. Utility costs are rising all over and will accelerate over the next few years.

Wind Only, or Wind+Solar?

I actually recommend the smaller systems in most cases because my systems are so easy to add on another unit later, very modular, clear upgrade path. We have configures systems up to 6 turbines in a system, so that's up to 5.1 KW or 5100 watts of hybrid power...

Grid-Tie or Off-Grid?
------------------------
Grid-Tie is more costly but you can tie directly to the home's panel and power goes TO AND FROM the grid. You can actually run the meter backwards, selling Excess Generation to the local utility company. More cost and red-tape, but a really nice way to go if you have the time and budget
to work it out. Grid-Tie Forum

Off-Grid is a way to get started easier, quicker, with less cost and red-tape. Personally, I run Off-Grid because it's so much more economical to build and add to my systems. Additionally, my local Utility does not pay fair prices for my power and it's not a very fair deal for me to go to all that expense. ALSO, You can always upgrade to Grid-Tie later and it's all easily upgradeable anytime. So, I recommend the Off-Grid cheaper systems for starting out. Off-Grid Forum

Government Tax Incentives, Credits
-----------------------------------------
Our Wind/Solar Hybrid systems are qualified for government tax crdedits of 30%. So, for your investment made in these systems the government tax incentives are 30% within one year that you get back from the IRS. So, basically the government will pay for almost 1/3 of your investment made in your new home energy system.

Improvement in Home Or Property Value
-----------------------------------------------
Of course that's not all, as soon as your system is up, you have improved your home value by atleast an equal amount of the investment. Your green energy home is more likely to sell than others with no home generation or emergency power system. Think about it. Look at homes for sale.. Can any of them generate their own free electricity, how many can compete with such a solid green energy capability like your home has. It's an attention getter and will bring people to see what it's about if you ever need to sell, your home has a dramatic edge.

Free Green Power
---------------------
In addition to your home's improved value, 30% government incentive, you will get free reliable electricity every day. The systems are designed for reliable power output for the next 30 years or so. With every increase of the utility company power your investment gets better all the time. Utility costs are rising all over and will accelerate over the next few years.

Wind Only, or Wind+Solar?
-------------------------------
First options in choosing your kit are, wind only, or wind AND solar. You'll notice that in the name description and the model numbers wind/solar, or WS, means kit has solar panels in kit. Having a hybrid wind AND solar system is really going to make it a more consistant green energy system. If you're on a budget, get the wind and you can always add solar later, we will always help you upgrade these systems, it's all based on low price point to get into home power. We can't all afford a giant windmill or solar system, these are affordable. Below is a graph showing the weather cycles of wind/solar and why wind/solar hybrid is so much better than solar only, or wind only systems.



How Much Energy & Budget
-------------------------------
The kits scale up by adding more wind and solar, from 1 turbine to three turbines. If you want a config that isn't listed, Call and I can direct you to a page to purchase larger systems. I actually recommend the smaller systems in most cases because my systems are so easy to add on another unit later, very modular, clear upgrade path. We have configures systems up to 6 turbines in a system, so that's up to 5.1 KW or 5100 watts of hybrid power...

Grid-Tie or Off-Grid?
------------------------
Grid-Tie is more costly but you can tie directly to the home's panel and power goes TO AND FROM the grid. You can actually run the meter backwards, selling Excess Generation to the local utility company. More cost and red-tape, but a really nice way to go if you have the time and budget
to work it out. Grid-Tie Forum

Off-Grid is a way to get started easier, quicker, with less cost and red-tape. Personally, I run Off-Grid because it's so much more economical to build and add to my systems. Additionally, my local Utility does not pay fair prices for my power and it's not a very fair deal for me to go to all that expense. ALSO, You can always upgrade to Grid-Tie later and it's all easily upgradeable anytime. So, I recommend the Off-Grid cheaper systems for starting out. Off-Grid Forum

Here's a link of some pre-sale questions that you may find helpful .

Owner/Dealers
-------------
We are now present in 13 states with our owner/dealer group. All you need to do to be qualified to be a dealer is to become an owner, go through install and operation of your system. I will spend enough time with you to help you be able to represent the products well. With an install there's all the free phone support and training it takes, usually it's 4 or 5, 1 hour conversations before your system even goes in. So, if you don't know about it, don't worry, I will train you about these system from end to end so that I can have your help selling them, it's grass roots.

We have Yard Signs, Car door Magnets, Business Cards, T-Shirts, Baseball Hats, Postcards, and Brochures, soon to be avail. for dealers to order from the site.

I'm available by phone to talk about the systems if you need pre-sale consult. Call if you want to talk.

We have several different options starting at $2990 and going up from there. Each linked system has a list of what's in it if you click into the pages. Here's list of systems and links to purchase.
Purchase With Credit Card Here

There's so many folks have been considering and thinking over a system, so I just wanted to give fair chance. Many calls are starting to catch me on phone with others. If you call and want a system, I will get back to you and talk about what you need and what we can do.

Yes, this is why I do not sell parts. I don't want to have my good parts used with stuff that does not work. That's what many others do, sell parts and run.

This is why I sell systems, complete systems of working, matched components, engineered to work together. Trying to create a wind turbine from a motor is what is called a junk yard turbine. The difference in a motor being used as a generator and an actual wind turbine is dramatically different. No motor is ever going to work like a real turbine. Even a normal generator is nowhere near what an actual wind turbine is, these are designed FOR WIND POWER in every way.

Junkyard Turbines?

They rarely, if ever work and people selling such ideas and plans are out for a quick buck at anyone's expense. My advise would be to get an actual wind turbine (system) that is a working serious system. You still have to install it and put it together, get to configure it and learn all about the technology. But, this way, when finished, you actually have something useful that makes power and works correctly.

I could go on and on about why a junkyard turbine will not work well, then will not last long if you made it work. I am not a rich guy, if they worked I would be making and using them too. Doing windpower right takes very specialized design, mechanics, engineering and electronics, then tuning. People who want to sell parts and plans are really taking advantage of allot of people out there right now. The internet is full of posers and wanna be's.

My advice is to sell your science project to someone else as a science project. Then, but a system from us that fits your budget. Good luck, sorry to deliver bad news like that.

Hi Sam, I haven't been able to begin on the project I was describing to you regarding the Whisper 500, as I found out in time that it had been discontinued and hadn't purchased it from the liar in Oklahoma. I did however convince the customer that your system was a very good idea and they are willing to go ahead with it, but I don't have the funds to purchase your 4.2 k system for them because I already spent a fair portion of their down-payment on their battery bank which consists of 6- 100 AmpH deep cycle batteries and I also bought the 5 1/2" pipe that is 42 feet in length.

In regards to the Whisper 200 project that I mentioned, I ordered two Outback VFX inverters and the component to stack them, plus the guy wire kit to get this project completed.

I just finished speaking with you personally and it sounds like is going to do his best to save my skin on this terrible mess I got myself into with Southwest Wind.

Post Whisper 500 is a turkey IMO Reply with quote
There's a good reason that turbine is not going forward, its design IMO, it's a turkey. This all too much for the forum here. Send me an email about what you need to finish the project as is.

You have a tower, what all else in play? Let's look at completing this system and we can work on rooftops of other design later. Seems like easiest thing is to get this project off as close to its design as possible. What voltage are we working with etc., hopefully 48v, Email me. I'll send you an email now.

Post Becoming a Windenergy7 Dealer and Representative Reply with quote
Thank you so much for your prompt and accurate reply to all of my questions. I have a small problem and i hope you may be able to help me. I secured a contract with a customer who agreed to have us install a Whisper 500 Wind turbine and I used the funds from their down-payment to order the pipe and begin constructing the foundation. The Southwest Wind supplier whom I was dealing with mislead me into thinking that I could go ahead with this project. Then I found out strictly by accident that Southwest has taken the Whisper 500 out of production. So, here I am without the funds to start over. The customer owns a quonset style machine shop that runs East to West, making it perfect for installing your three turbine 4.1 K system onto the top of it. The contract was for $19,560.00, leaving $9,780.00 remaining to be paid to my company when the project is completed. If I paid you $5,000.00 down on the system, would you consider allowing me to pay the remainder of what I owe you on the system when I complete it? My former book keeper embezzled $38,827.28 from me in September and so I have been in a terrible mess since that time. If I could get this project completed I will finally be fully recovered from the damage she caused me. I am handling all of the financial affairs of my company personally now. I am also about to complete another project installing a Whisper 200 and I have had a very difficult time getting it finished also because the same Southwest supplier lied to me about the size of inverter I was going to need on this project. I finally have this mess cleaned up and we should be finished with it in just a few days and then I will have another $2,000.00 from the final payment on this job which I am willing to pay you towards the system as well. This job is being done in a small rural community and there are 9 other potential customers who are planning on having me do systems for them if we do a good job on this current one, so I have the potential to sell at least 9 of your systems in the very near future, I just need someone like yourself to give me a break. I'm a 51 year old former marine who worked as a nurse for 30 years before going back and getting my business degree last year. I've never had to beg anyone for anything in my life, but i am pleading with you now to please help me, because I know without a doubt that I will be a great representative of your company if you can only see fit to give me a chance.
