Windy Boy Grid Connection of Small Wind Energy Systems – simpler than ever Flexible With the Windy Boy we have developed an inverter for grid connection of small wind turbine systems. Almost 30 years experience in system technology for decentral energies and over six gigawatts of installed inverter power worldwide forms the basis of this. The Windy Boy converts the energy from the wind generator into grid conforming alternating current. And then it feeds this into a public utility grid or an autonomous stand-alone grid. Additionally the inverter is extraordinarily exible: various device...

Windy Boy - the heart of your wind turbine system The Windy Boy connects small wind turbine systems with permanent magnet generators to an AC grid. Its task: to convert the electricity from the wind generator into grid conforming alternating current and feed it into the AC grid. Since the electricity from the wind generator is dependent on the rotary speed and can greatly vary, the inverter should be protected from too great a feed-in voltage. For this, SMA has found the ideal solution: Teamwork. Wind turbine system Communication (optional) Windy Boy work perfectly together: The Windy Boy...

Public Utility Grid or Stand-Alone? Grid Connection Options The Windy Boy is exible and offers you various options for energy use. It can feed the electricity from your wind turbine system into an house grid, a public utility grid or an autonomous Sunny Island grid. 1. Feeding directly into the public utility grid Here the Windy Boy feeds the energy from the wind turbine system directly into the public utility grid. This takes place via an feed-in counter. Depending on the location of your installation you receive a xed feed-in reimbursement from the grid operator. In Germany the...
