A 23-foot diameter, 3-blade, up-wind wind machine, rated at 10 kW at 25 mph, and equipped with a grid connected alternator, was used to supply power to a 1700 square foot energy conserving building. Since air conditioning is the major load, energy is stored in the form of ice. It is advised that data be collected on site for three years rather than relying on airport data as was done in this case. Purchase of electricity was nonetheless reduced from 2100 kWh to 44 kWh per month. (LEW)
