Whisper Manual Document #0023 REV A WELCOME TO YOUR RENEWABLE ENERGY SYSTEM! ELECTRICITY FROM THE WIND AND SUN: Renewable electric power systems provide independent (no utility grid!) electric power for boats, homeowners, farms, villages and commercial applications such as telecommunications. If utility power is available, your renewable energy system can reduce the electric bill and provide back up electricity during storms or line failure.
Whisper Manual Document #0023 REV A DESCRIPTION OF SYSTEMS The illustration below depicts a typical installation. For more information regarding specifications and content of the packaged wind, wind/solar and inverter systems, contact Southwest Windpower. Whisper Wind Generators include the EZ-WIRE System Center and the user supplies the battery, tower, inverter and wiring. During windless periods, solar panels may supplement your usage of renewable energy.
