Another of the most interesting applications for those that use the WINDSPOT range of small wind turbines is to feed remote telecommunications antenna that need to be self-sufficient.
As in the other cases, the electricity generated by the small wind turbie has to be transformed into direct current by the controller-charger which also, when excesses of power are given, diverts the surplus energy to discharge resistors that work as a brake and dissipate the surplus energy as heat.
Once the energy is stored in the batteries, it is already ready for consumption by the telecommunications antenna.
