[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 537817, member: 23472"] The most popular wind turbines for marine use are either 12v or 24v so, no use with a 48v system. Also you would need an inverter that could accept a wind turbine or one that has 2 inputs, one of which must be free. But the best thing to do would be to buy an [URL='https://amzn.to/3Fv1b48']Anemometer[/URL] (Click the link, cheapest one) and check the wind speed in the proposed location, you will be looking for a wind speed of 5m/sec at the minimum, anything less or not constant would be a waste of time. Wind turbines are good on boats because they are out at sea with nothing in the way to slow wind down, but in urban areas, not so good, but you may be the lucky one :) hence get an anemometer first.
