Wind Energy
Small Wind Turbine Sizing Calculator
Estimate the rated power capacity (kW) of a small wind turbine needed to meet a household or business's energy demand. Use this when planning a residential or small commercial wind installation and you know your monthly consumption and local wind speed.

Wind Energy
Wind Farm Turbine Spacing Calculator
Calculate the minimum center-to-center distance between wind turbines based on rotor diameter and spacing factors for downwind and crosswind directions. Use this during wind farm layout design to reduce wake-induced energy losses.
