WINDY BOY 5000US / 6000US / 7000US

SMA’s larger Windy Boy inverters combine the advanced technology present in our new US series of Sunny Boy inverters with special firmware that permits direct grid-tied operation with a broad range of wind turbines – without batteries. This greatly reduces the overall system cost because components such as the charge controller, batteries and associated switch gear can be eliminated.

Increased total energy capture combined with a reduction of balance of system components greatly reduces the installation and operating costs of a grid-tied wind system. We recommend contacting your local wind turbine supplier for information on compatible wind turbine models and system design considerations.
