With a push to green much is made of wind energy. In the media, attention to the development of wind power is focused on industry, and many homeowners have followed suit. The emergence of many wind upstarting companies has advertisers who seek to attract consumers' attention to a relatively new market. At this point, advertising focused mainly on the maximum "digit output." To some extent, this confused consumers, many of whom were new to wind energy. To confuse matters even more, most companies purposefully inflate these numbers in a proper, deliberate attempt to mislead consumers.
In our opinion, the maximum power ratings of most people’s wind power are focused on very little to describe the efficiency of a particular unit. This number is not enough to convey a conceptual idea to the client, which is useful when making decisions about buying a wind generator. The maximum output of wind generators in many cases gives a snapshot of the expected output at the moment of pressure at the peak of the power curve. In fact, a residential wind turbine in a particular area may never reach this output figure, or if it does, it may rarely do. If a wind generator reaches two thousand watts in winds at a speed of 40 miles per hour, for example, this is great even if it just started charging the system when the wind reached over 20 miles per hour, which would make the unit useless in most parts of the world in most cases . Many wind turbines do not achieve the desired “cut points” until the wind speed reaches 10-12 mph. Therefore, most of the time turbines do not produce energy.
Consider an example of contrasting solar energy with wind power. With solar energy, one of the obstacles is that panels can provide energy for only 4-8 hours per day, depending on location. It follows logically that the ability to produce energy in a larger time window makes wind energy attractive. Wind maps show that most of the wind zones in the USA and in the world in this respect fall into an area where the average wind is less than 10-12 miles per hour. Considering that most wind turbine kits on the market do not provide any power to talk about wind below 10 mph, it follows logically that concentrating on power in lower wind zones has many advantages and a product that produces power when the wind speeds 5 mph is more useful in more areas.
In conclusion, in accordance with the existing advertising practices described above, if one consumer bought a wind turbine that was rated at 1,000 watts and another buyer bought a turbine that was advertised at 250 watts, it is possible that the low-temperature turbine will consume more energy in certain period of time. Advertising the maximum charge that a wind generator can create is more deceptive and unreal than anything else. Many products advertised with high performance have very little power with normal and weak winds. Something needs to be done to adjust power ratings, to put a wind generator rating on an equal footing and to stop rewarding deceptive advertisers. Depending on your area, a newcomer to a wind turbine may benefit by focusing on efficient wind turbine designs that can provide a constant charge for a long period of time with low winds.
