Wind energy
WINDY BOY - grid-coupling small wind energy plants
The grid-coupling of small wind energy plants is simpler than ever - with the Windy Boy from SMA. It converts the variable frequency voltage from wind generators into grid conforming AC voltage. Thus the energy can be used privately, excess energy fed into the mains grid and respectively remunerated. The Windy Boy works perfectly together with the Sunny Island in stand-alone grids for the electrification of remote areas.
Windy Boy 3300 / 3800
Highest yield in any climate
With a maximum efficiency of 95.6 %, the Windy Boy 3300 and 3800 inverters are among the most costeffective inverters for small wind turbine systems. The weatherproof enclosure and broad temperature range permit installation at nearly any location, and thanks to the OptiCool cooling system, the inverters operate at outdoor temperatures of up to 45 °C with maximum output. The programmable polynomial curve enables optimal adaptation to the turbine curve, which increases yield. And in case of a problem: the worldwide SMA Service and comprehensive warranty program provide maximum reliability.
