Power-One has announced that the Company's Aurora PVI-3.0-OUTD-W 3kW inverter has been selected by WindTronics for use with the Honeywell Wind Turbine for on-grid installations. WindTronics is spreading the availability of wind power for home and business owners with its wind turbine, which is now available through a global distribution network. "After evaluating several major inverter firms, we chose to work with Power-One to develop an optimized inverter to offer with the Honeywell Wind Turbine. Power-One's proven input technology supports our value proposition to generate power at low wind speeds, increasing the harvested energy for residences and businesses," said Reg Adams, President of WindTronics. The Honeywell Wind Turbine, often referred to as a wind generator for its size, weight, shrouded/enclosure and quiet characteristics, features the innovative Blade Tip Power System BTPS that utilizes a system of magnets and stators surrounding its outer ring to capture power at the blade tips where speed is greatest, practically eliminating mechanical resistance and drag. This enables the Honeywell Wind Turbine to start turning at 0.5 mph and generating energy in two mph of wind. The Power-One inverter specifically provides the Honeywell Wind Turbine with a utility grid connection. This allows the power generated by the wind turbine to be used and measured onsite by a utility meter. Additionally, the Power-One inverter seamlessly connects with two wind turbines at once, allowing customers with multiple units to benefit from lower install costs and accurate energy measurement. "WindTronics is revolutionizing the wind industry with its turbine that generates power at low wind speeds," stated Mirko Bindi, Business Development Manager for Wind Power, Power-One Renewable Energy Solutions. "We are pleased to work with them to deliver an optimized solution for their customers. Further, this also enables us to leverage our renewable energy expertise in the solar industry and apply it more widely to the small wind industry."
