wind solar hybrid wind generators

Combining Wind Turbine and Solar Panels into a hybrid system offers several advantages. In many places, wind speeds are low in the summer when the sun is plentiful. The wind is strong in the winter when less sunlight is available. Because the peak operating times for wind and solar systems occur at different times of the day and year, hybrid systems are better balanced and more likely to produce power when you need it.

Wind power can be an excellent complement to a solar power system. When the sun isn't shining, the wind is usually blowing. Wind power is especially helpful in the winter to capture both the ferocious and gentle mountain winds during the times of least sunlight and highest power use. In some locations wind is not suitable as the ONLY source of power--it simply fills in the gaps left by solar power quite nicely.
