Product Overview
What Is the SkyWind NG Small Wind Turbine?
The SkyWind NG is a modern micro wind turbine engineered for private properties, commercial premises, and agricultural operations. It is available in two output classes: SkyWind NG 1kW and SkyWind NG 2kW.
Unlike rooftop solar panels, the SkyWind NG generates electricity around the clock — on overcast days, at night, and especially during winter months when wind energy output is typically at its seasonal peak. This makes it the ideal complement to any solar PV system in a hybrid solar wind setup.
The SkyWind NG is equally suitable for off-grid battery charging and grid-tied operation. Whether you want to power a remote cabin, reduce your home energy bill, or achieve near-total energy independence — the SkyWind NG delivers reliable, low-maintenance output year-round.
As authorised distributor and installation partner, WSP Solar provides the SkyWind NG including individual site assessment, delivery across Europe, and optional professional installation. Learn more at wsp-solarenergie.de.

Return on Investment
Is the SkyWind NG Worth It? Yield & Payback
The economics of the SkyWind NG depend primarily on your site's wind resource. At an average wind speed of 5 m/s, the SkyWind NG 1kW can generate 1,500–2,500 kWh per year — enough to cover a significant share of a typical household's electricity demand.
At €0.30/kWh, that translates to annual savings of €450–750 from self-consumption alone — before any feed-in revenue or subsidies. Payback periods of 8–12 years are realistic at good wind sites, dropping further when combined with solar PV.
In a hybrid solar wind system with battery storage, self-sufficiency rates above 70% are achievable — significantly reducing dependence on grid electricity and protecting against future price increases.
Check Wind Potential at Your Site
Use the Global Wind Atlas to estimate average wind speeds for any location worldwide before requesting a detailed site assessment.

Hybrid Solar Wind System
SkyWind NG + Solar Fence:
The Optimal Hybrid Energy System.
Solar PV and wind turbines are complementary by nature. Solar produces the most energy on sunny summer days; the SkyWind NG delivers reliably during winter, at night, and on overcast days when panels underperform.
Combined with battery storage, a hybrid solar wind system achieves self-sufficiency rates well above 70% — delivering genuine energy independence from grid price fluctuations.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions – SkyWind NG Micro Wind Turbine
What is the SkyWind NG?+
The SkyWind NG is a compact micro wind turbine engineered for residential, commercial, and agricultural use. Available in two models — SkyWind NG 1kW and SkyWind NG 2kW — it generates clean electricity from wind with a cut-in speed of just 2.5 m/s. Its low-noise design (≤45 dB at 10 m) and compact rotor make it suitable for rooftop, mast, and facade mounting.
Can the SkyWind NG be used off-grid?+
Yes. The SkyWind NG is fully compatible with off-grid battery systems. It connects to 12V, 24V, or 48V battery banks via a charge controller, enabling continuous power supply without any grid connection. This makes it ideal for remote cabins, farms, energy-independent homes, and backup power installations.
Can I combine the SkyWind NG with solar panels?+
Absolutely — combining the SkyWind NG with solar panels is the recommended setup. Solar generates most power in summer and full sunshine; the SkyWind NG contributes most in winter, at night, and on overcast days. A hybrid solar wind system with battery storage can achieve self-sufficiency rates above 70%.
Is the SkyWind NG suitable for rooftop installation?+
Yes. The SkyWind NG can be mounted on rooftops using a flange mast from 3 m upward. Its vibration-dampening design and quiet operation make it well-suited for building-mounted installation on pitched roofs, flat roofs, and commercial structures. A structural survey is recommended before rooftop mounting.
How much energy can a micro wind turbine produce?+
Annual output depends on your site's wind conditions. The SkyWind NG 1kW generates approximately 1,500–2,500 kWh per year at an average wind speed of 5 m/s; the 2kW model produces 3,000–5,000 kWh/year at 5–6 m/s. We conduct a free site assessment to provide an accurate yield forecast for your specific location.
Do I need a battery storage system?+
Not necessarily. The SkyWind NG works in both grid-tied and off-grid configurations. For grid-tied use it feeds power directly into your home circuit or the public grid. For off-grid or hybrid systems, battery storage is strongly recommended to store surplus energy and maintain supply during low-wind periods.
Is worldwide shipping available?+
Yes. We ship the SkyWind NG across Europe, with delivery typically 5–10 business days within the EU. For destinations outside the EU, we provide freight quotations on request. All units include CE certification, multilingual documentation (DE, EN, ES), and a 2-year manufacturer warranty.
What wind speed is needed for the SkyWind NG?+
The SkyWind NG starts generating electricity at approximately 2.5 m/s (about 9 km/h). Rated output is reached at 10–12 m/s. Sites with an annual average wind speed of 4 m/s or above are generally suitable. We recommend the Global Wind Atlas or our free site check to assess wind conditions at your specific location.
Is the SkyWind NG suitable for homes, cabins, and remote locations?+
Yes. The SkyWind NG 1kW is specifically designed for residential and off-grid use. Its compact footprint, low noise level, and off-grid battery compatibility make it equally suitable for home gardens, remote mountain cabins, rural retreats, and agricultural sites.
