Multiple turbines can share a single metering board For more information on our control system and electrical requirements, please download the factsheet(s) from: www.quietrevolution.com/qr5-factsheets.php TURBINE SYSTEM UK PRICE £20,000 (includes rotor, mast, control electronics) GRID CONNECTION A three-phase grid connection is required – please note we do not currently offer a single phase or an off-grid/battery version. Included as part of the Control Electronics Panel is a turbine controller, inverter, Ofgem approved electricity meter and protection relay for grid connection A single qr5 can usually be grid connected with a simple notification to the electricity supplier. Multiple qr5s may require prior approval - applications to the electricity supplier can be completed by your qr5 installer For more information on grid connection please download our factsheet(s) from: www.quietrevolution.com/qr5-factsheets.php The peak power at 15.5m/s is 8.2kW aerodynamic | 7.1kW DC | 6.0kW Grid The BWEA rated power at 11m/s is 4.6kW aerodynamic | 3.3kW DC | 2.3kW Grid (N.B. when comparing turbine ratings please ensure that the windspeeds are like for like. Alternative manufacturers may not quote at the BWEA rating windspeed, therefore comparisons should be made using the power curve) POWER
