How can distributed wind energy help a community?Distributed wind energy has the potential to diversify local energy sources to help provide clean renewable energy in your community. Click on the interactive animation or read a text version of the use cases.
What is a distributed wind energy installation?A distributed wind energy installation is defined by its technology application, not its size, and is typically smaller than 20 MW. This type of installation is explained in this animation and illustrates how a turbine at a residential home can offset its energy usage.
What is distributed wind technology?Wind technology as a distributed energy resource is commonly referred to as distributed wind. Distributed wind energy installations generate electricity for remote communities with isolated grids or are connected to distribution grids to serve grid-connected customers.
