Hybrid Systems
Hybrid Systems
A stand-alone "hybrid" system that combines wind with Solar energy technologies and a backup generator offers great advantages for the homeowner.
In most areas of the United States the wind speeds are low in the summer when the sun shines brightest and longest. During the winter strong winds blow out of the North and West typically when there is less sunlight available. The peak operating times for wind and Solar occur at different times of the day and year so hybrid systems are more likely to produce power when you need it.
