Skystream 3.7 Cat. No. SWW-SK3.7 Weight 170 lbs | $5,400.00 |
Skystream 3.7
The first small wind generator designed specifically for
grid-connected
residential use, Skystream 3.7 from Southwest Windpower lets Americans
harness wind energy and take control of their energy bills like never
before.
Specifically for Grid-Connectivity
Skystream 3.7 is specifically-designed for grid-connected home and
business use. In certain states consumers can take advantage of
net-metering, or the sale of unused energy back to the power grid.
Low Cost
A wind power engineering breakthrough, Skystream 3.7 is the first
residential wind appliance to produce energy at a cost ($.09/kWh) that
is lower than the retail rate of many electric utilities. The cost of a
Skystream 3.7 is approximately $8,700. Depending on the tower and
installation costs, wind speed average, rebates and local electricity
costs, Skystream 3.7 can pays for itself in as quickly as 4 years.
All-in-One Solution
Skystream 3.7 offers a simple, all-in-one solution to harnessing wind
energy on a residential scale. Different from all other technologies,
Skystream 3.7 is the first all-inclusive wind generator with the
controls and inverter built in.
Energy Production in Exceptionally Low
Wind
Designed for very low winds, Skystream 3.7 begins producing power in
an 8 mph breeze with full output achieved at 20 mph.
Low Profile
Skystream 3.7 can be mounted on a 35 ft. tower. This means a vast
number of households on one acre or larger lots will now have access to
residential, grid-connected wind energy. A site assessment is
important to determine the best tower
height for your site.
Exceptionally Quiet Operation
Skystream 3.7 operates exceptionally quietly. In fact, Skystream 3.7
is unrecognizable over trees blowing in the wind.
