Advantages of Ecorote wind turbines:

• Operation independent of wind direction: vertical axis wind turbines (Vertical Axis Wind Turbine – VAWT) operate independently of wind direction. No need for complex wind setting technologies. Turbines are cheaper, lighter and more durable.

• Durability: endurance tests in wind tunnels and in natural conditions have shown the turbines’ ability to withstand very strong winds and variable weather conditions.

• No servicing: the disc generator, which converts wind kinetic energy into electricity, has no frictional components. Service inspections are not required. Bearings used in ECOROTE turbines guaranteed for at least 20 years.

• High-quality workmanship: turbine blades made of extruded aluminum profile with seamless monolith design are characterized by resistance to thermal expansion caused by heating.

• The white paint applied to the turbines reflects the sun’s rays. Resistance class C5+M. Steel parts are galvanized and aluminum parts are anodized for more effective corrosion protection.

• Polish product: the materials used in production are 98% from Polish manufacturers.

• Simple construction: the turbines are shipped in such a way as to minimize the work required to assemble a complete turbine. The most difficult components are assembled in-house, facilitating simple and intuitive assembly for the user.

• Quiet operation: Ecorote turbines are quiet, making no noise or turbulence thanks to a range of vibration isolation.

• Efficiency: ECOROTE turbines convert 71% (0.42 Betz number) of wind energy into electricity.

• Low takeoff speed: depending on the model, ECOROTE turbines take off aslow as 1.2 m/s wind speed.

Possible types of masts for the Ecorote 1500 W wind turbine under individual order.

Pre-stressed concrete mast.

Made by spreading concrete in a rotating conical mold, it allows high technical performance and smooth surface. It is characterized by long-term operation and service life. The cost is relatively low compared to masts of similar height. A cap with a turbine mounting base is required for the prestressed concrete pole.

Steel mast on lashings.

Made of interconnected thin-walled tubes, it provides low weight and the pole can be disassembled into short sections for convenient transportation. The lashings attached to concrete anchors balance the existing stresses. Mounting of the turbine directly to the pole, without additional connecting elements.

Mast for flat roof.

A truss system with a wide base spacing provides stability and strength to the structure. Possibility to design a mast less than three meters above the roof. Four divergent elements of the structure allow easy transportation, assembly and disassembly. For a flat roof, two vibration isolation joints are used in addition, minimizing vibrations transmitted to the building.

Use of Ecorote wind turbines.

1. On-Grid/On-Grid hybrid system is the solution usually used when the building is connected to the power grid. It is one of the simplest systems, consisting of a wind turbine of any capacity, a grid inverter with an output voltage of 1 x 230 V AC or 3 x 230 V AC, a bidirectional meter to measure energy generated and consumed, protection in the form of circuit breakers and surge arrestors, a resistor to stop the turbine, and a connection to the power grid.

* Designations:
1. Ecorote wind turbine
2. Hybrid inverter/controller
4. 230V consumers
5. Water heater / hot water / heating
6. Photovoltaic panels (in hybrid system)
7. Generator (optional)
8. AC switch / meter
9. Grid

On-Grid systems can also be expanded with photovoltaic modules to form hybrid systems. Batteries can be installed to store surplus energy. In case of frequent power failures from the grid, the system can be equipped with a diesel generator. The On-Grid system allows the use of directly generated energy and the sale of surplus energy or its storage in the power grid.

2. The Off-Grid/Off-Grid hybrid system is ideal for buildings not connected to the power grid, such as recreational homes, or if you want to be completely independent of energy suppliers. The system is identical to On-Grid, but requires batteries to store excess energy. There is no need to connect to the power grid, so a two-way meter is not needed.

* Labels:
1. Ecorote wind turbine
2. Hybrid inverter/controller
3. Accumulators
5. Water heater / hot water / heating
6. Photovoltaic panels (in hybrid system)
7. Generator (optional)

It is possible to expand the system with photovoltaic panels and a diesel generator as in the On-Grid system. Both solutions have their advantages and disadvantages. The On-Grid system uses power from the grid, so in the event of a power failure in the grid, electrical appliances in the house do not work (unless a diesel generator is installed in addition). The Off-Grid system is connected to a battery, which eliminates concerns about power outages. However, the Off-Grid system is more expensive and does not allow the sale of generated power to the grid.

3. The On/Off-Grid / On/Off-Grid hybrid system is a solution that combines the advantages of On-Grid and Off-Grid systems. It removes the problem of power outages that can result from weather anomalies, grid repairs, etc. The system primarily accumulates surplus energy in batteries and uses the stored energy when the wind turbine with additional photovoltaic panels does not generate enough energy, or when there is a total grid failure.

* Designations:
1. Ecorote wind turbine
2. Hybrid inverter/controller
3. Batteries
4. 230V consumers
5. Water heater / hot water / heating
6. Photovoltaic panels (in hybrid system)
7. Generator (optional)
8. AC switch / meter
9. Network

A battery of a certain capacity draws the missing energy from the grid through an inverter that controls the system when the battery is completely discharged. The system can also transfer energy to the grid when the batteries are fully charged and the energy generated by the wind turbine and photovoltaic panels is sufficient to power the building.
