Let’s Compare an 11 kw C&F Wind Energy Wind Turbine To A Gaia 11kw Wind Turbine.

In this blog post, we will compare various stats, power curves & swept area of a 11 kw C&F Energy (Galway) Wind Turbine, and the class leading Gaia 11kw Wind Turbine, both turbines are available in Northern Ireland & Ireland.

 

Swept Area & Blade Diameter: 

Gaia Swept area: 133m – Blade Dia: 13m

 C&F Swept area: 50m -  Blade Dia 8m

Blade Rotation Speed:

Gaia – 56 rpm   C&F – 220 rpm

Power Curves* at a glance… 

@ 5m/s wind Gaia – 2.8kw    C&F –  1.5kw*

@ 6m/s wind Gaia – 5kw        C&F – 2.5 kw*

@ 7m/s wind Gaia – 7.3kw   C&F – 4kw*

@8m/s wind Gaia – 8.9kw     C&F – 6.0kw*

@9m/s wind Gaia – 10.4 kw  C&F – 8kw*

Think the above, sums up the Gaia 11kw Wind Turbine performance  nicely….

Note: The  11kw Gaia turbine  is MCS certified**, giving you full confidence in a turbine that qualifies for NIE Domestic Grants, Feed In Tariff (Uk) , and it’s the only only small wind turbine in the world, that currently holds the coveted Danish HB stamp of approval.
