Has anyone perfected a wind turbine to charge batteries during the night?
If not, why not?
thanks
Hi @Ricbottorf
i use a windturbine for pylontech batterys. (cant really use it for Bluetti Powerstation because of the high voc of a wind turbine). There is a really simple reason, why windturbines arent that popular.
The first and important thing is the location. Do use windenergy, you need much, steady and wind without any turbulences. So mostly make sense on a open field for example.
Second thing is, its unreliable. Wind isnt always there. No wind = No power. Solar does produce even on cloudy days.
And to add: The Poweroutput of a wind turbine is far less than solar. Sure, in the night its a welcome power source.
The biggest bummer is the setup of the turbine. When you want to use a wind turbine effectivly, you can configure it with a mppt curve. To find the perfect curve, it needs a lot of time. Solar is more or less just plug and play.
Hope i can give you some insights, just tag me if you have more questions.
greetings
Erik
