The Jacobs® Grid Intertie System
takes the power that the wind plant produces and converts it to
useable energy and transfers it to the utility grid (power company)
through the customers circuit breaker panel. When the
customers usage exceeds the wind systems output, the additional
power required is drawn from the utility grid. If the
electrical needs are satisfied by the wind system, no power is used
from the utility. During periods of sustained high winds the
system may produce more power than is consumed, a financial return
can be realized by selling the excess power to the utility company
and through net energy savings. The Grid Intertie System is
not a backup power system, if the utility power goes out, the
control shuts down until the utility power comes back on.
Basic system consists of the following:
- Wind Turbine
- Grid Intertie Controls
- Tower & Hinges
