*The
amount of power this system will supply in an average day, and in what zone:
Zone 1
..........................7290W
Zone 2
..........................6849W
Zone 3
..........................6408W
Zone 4
..........................5967W
Zone 5
..........................5703W

* Daily
energy output for this system includes the solar energy output from system
#4 plus the monthly energy output of the Whisper 100 at a site with an
average
wind speed of 10 mph (~60 kWh per month divided by 30 days on
average = 2 kWh
per day).

This is an example system of how much power it will provide and the
cost. These are merely guidelines to assist you; we design power
systems specifically to meet YOUR power needs. We offer a
Solar Electric Design Guide and a Product Catalog for just $10.00 --
a boon to your energy library! These publications are filled with
planning & system sizing data, calculating power consumption,
battery care, generator-inverter systems, basic component info on
regulators, modules, inverters, batteries; wind generators, RV systems,
and battery wiring, among other things. This will be a good
investment for those seriously considering an alternate energy power
system. |
