Becoming a Windenergy7 Dealer and Representative |
|
This is kind of funny that you post this. I had an identical conversation with a prospect in Texas the other night. She was not wanting to be limited to this product line. Itr's a protection of both dealer and manufacturer that partners better than what others are doing. Southwest and others compete directly with their own dealers, and they have no control over dealers competing with each other making the business hard to survive with.
The way our dealer channel works is better than what others are doing. I talked with people, many who were screwed around one way or another by wind or solar dealerships where they got a raw deal. Or worse. I put allot of thought into the way I run the business.

Hello,
We have guywire kits for the systems, can order either one interchangeably at same cost as roof mounted. When you go to the purchase part of the site, look upper left and you'll see Home Turbine Tower Kits. There you can buy WindEnergy7 Kits that have guyed tower rather than roof mounted. The outdoor battery banks are not a problem, just a foam insulated metal cabinet, or best idea I have heard... a used refrigerator, recycled to a battery and inverter cabinet.
As for the water pumping system, just tell me what you want in the kits, we can put it up to make it easy to buy them with the parts you want. Since the method of our company is to sell and support complete systems, not parts, we need to engineer whole system kits for this so that we know it will all work as designed and satisfy the customers. I can work with you on that.
Email me to let me know what your desired water pumping system kit would have in it. Let's get started.

I own & operate a renewable energy company. We have done several PV Solar and small wind systems in our area. I have become quite disenchanted with Southwest WindPower for a number of reasons. We have communicated much earlier in the year and I was already involved with Southwest Wind and you made a very logical argument as to why you couldn't allow me to be a dealer with your company and continue to use Southwest to get my components and I totally agree with your rationale. We have done numerous projects using their small Whisper generators for rural farmers who wish to power their water well-pumps. The only dilemma I have is that I still need to have access to their guy-wire kits. Aside from this, I have not desire to have anything to do with them anymore for many reasons. I am very impressed with what you have accomplished and I sincerely apologize for not having more faith in you and your products. My question is this, can you assist me in being able to install your system out in these rural areas to install systems that will pump water where there does not exist any buildings to attach our components to? We also need to have somewhere to place their battery banks out of the weather, as it gets extremely cold out here in Kansas. I am honestly and sincerely ready to make a commitment to drop Southwest WindPower in order to be a Windenergy7 Dealer, but i don't want to lose my niche with these rural farmers and ranchers who need me to power their water well-pumps because so far this has been my bread and gravy. Please tell me that you have a solution to this dilemma??.

What Do You Mean "Grid Tied" What's That About? |
|
>> Hello, I see your new HO systems and have been looking
>> for awhile. Now ready to buy the 4.2kW before the end of
>> year so I can get my tax credit to pay for 30% of my system
>> which is over $5000 credit! I hate to ask this but can you
>> explain what the "Grid Tie" is and what it all means.
>> Thanks, Pam
Hello Pam,
So, what is a grid-tied wind/solar hybrid system like the new HO series?
It is a wind solar electric generation system interacting with the utility, with batteries, using the most advanced inverters that can actually sell any excess power produced by your system back to the utility grid. So, today, your meter runs only one way, forward with you paying. With a grid tie, when you are making more than you are using, that meter will run backwards, crediting your account with that power that you generated. It then gets used by your neighbors in their homes from the grid.
If you are concerned at all about your utility rates going up and would like to do something to reduce your monthly electric bill, then a grid-tie home wind turbine kit may be just the thing for you. The kits are easy to install, mounted on your roof, where they quietly generate power from the wind sun that you can either use directly or sell back to the utility company.
The new HO series system can run on the grid as a "Grid-Tie" or it can run in a rural setting with no grid power at all. The system is very versatile to be able to run as a Grid-Tie or an Off-Grid system. So, if you are interested in the new HO Series turbine here are some links to videos of the system in action, this is a grid tied system and we can still sell you an HO, whether 1.4kW, 2.8kW, or 4.2kW, we can sell you any size that fits your budget in time to take that tax credit.
Call me when you are ready to do a pre-sale consultation.

Side Pole Mount vs. Roof Mount of Solar Panels |
|
>> The battery bank and cabinet have been in place and are ready
>> to go. If I knew for sure what size pole would work with the
>> mounts you provide, I would also have the pole in place.
Hi Joe,
The Z Clips are the standard hardware for roof mounting. I will build you a pole mount and support that if you want because that (WAS) an option at the time of your purchase, but that will not be standard going forward. By percentage, after selling so many units. There are about 1 in 10 that prefer pole mount and most just do not want a pole around. They are foregoing yield for simplicity and aesthetics. I am reacting to what the people want because it's better for me and the installer as well to put on the roof.
In fact I have had several calls where they have seen pictures of the pole mount, think that is only way we do it. I have had customers state that they would want one if it did not have to have that pole in the yard. So, most see that as not attractive. I started out with roof mount panels and Z Clips and was successful. I had changed to pole mount for yield of solar. But the customers are clearly telling me that's not what is preferred. So, I am standardizing to the desire of the customers. After all, that's my specialty, rooftop mounted systems that are easy, cheap, and not obtrusive to the landscape.
If you have a south facing roof, I would recommend doing the Z Clip straight to the roof. If you need a pole mount, I will build you one but it won't be real quick. It also may lead customers to do the more costly and difficult pole mount.
I have decided that my new panels are going to the roof also here. It's going to save me a ditch, pole, wiring, and I will have less obstructions in my yard. I think I'm going for roof mounts here at my new system I am building here at the house now.
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 in most states for new dealers but many counties and a few entire states are taken up and several people are saying they are going to get their territory. 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.

How Tight Should Rotor be Bolted to Turbine Shaft |
|
>> Also, when tightening the bolt on the turbine, how tight should that
>> be? Does that have any relation to ability for the turbine to spin?
Just snug it up so that the lock washer compresses down and you know it's tight. Because of the way it tapers on the shaft and how hard it will be to get off, don't tighten too hard. That sucker fits on in way that it is VERY hard to ever remove it. So, you don't have to worry about getting it very tight.
This rotor will be hard to ever get off and I would recommend 2 things. Wipe a drop of oil around just to keep it from seizing up, not much, just a drop. Also, don't attach rotor till last step. Turbine should be fully ready to run before rotor goes on last thing. See picture below. This turbine all ready, battery bank operational, inverter fully functioning, THEN the rotor goes on LAST.
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 in most states for new dealers but many counties and a few entire states are taken up and several people are saying they are going to get their territory.

Mounting Solar Panels to Roof, Home Wind Solar System |
|
>> By the way, what are the specifics on the wiring for the panels? My
>> electrician will be going to home depot to get. Any info ASAP
>> would be great!
There's a diagram in the DRAFT manual. Two panels go together pos to negative to combine voltage higher, then run to controller as input, 10 guage unless it's over 50 feet or so, then go 8 guage etc.
http://windenergy7.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=100
>> Could you please provide a picture of the solar panels mounted on the
>> roof. Specifically, the connection between bracket contact to roof.
Sure, Here's one example below. This one is too close to the legs IMO, maybe. It may be the angle but looks like it is over top of the legs a bit. If so, this probably for asthetics I imagine. I would not overlap your panels over your mount legs like this but still, this looks like a good install and this dealer really did a good job on his system. These are the larger 240watt upgrade panels like you have.
But, with the plastic connection box up top, orient them like this, side by side. Use 25 year caulk or tar to dip the bolts into before screwing them down. Most cases just screw into the deck with a 1/4" x 1" lag, silicome top & bottom and bolt as you screw it in. The Zclips create a separation between the roof and panels, and create an easy extension to screw down to the roof.

Off-Grid Rooftop System, 2 or 3 Wind Turbines |
|
Is that your cost per kwH or what they give you in "Buy Back" for your grid tie?
Here in Ohio our cost to buy power is at $.11 per Kwh, but if I generate an extra kwH and it goes into the grid I only get $.07. So this is common of most situations for consumers with Grid-Tie systems. The rate of exchange is very unfair and not designed to stimulate home generation at all.
This is why with our WindEnergy7 Grid-Tie we try to not build systems to exceed the home use. With such an unfair rate of exchange in most consumer situations it does not help the ROI (return on investment) to make more than you use.
Now, back to the topic, "Off-Grid Rooftop System, 2 or 3 Wind Turbines". My answer is that you should go as large as you can use the power generated and not exceed that to generate extra for the utility company. That is unless you are in a very favorable ctate where regulation and grid tie policy is good.
In the future, people will be educated about the way our grid-tie laws and regulation are stacked against green power, against home power generation. At some point, folks will get smart and demand these rules be straightened out to actually stimulate growth like it is in Colorado and a few other lucky states where there is actually leadership and the government is acting in the interest of the public and the environment.
