Normally the Wind to Solar ratio recommended in India is 60/40. Our 8KW hybrid systems are configured for 40% Solar and 60% wind and we see over 50% savings in capital costs as against a solar only installation for the same wattage. However the smaller hybrid units such as the Energy-XS 33W hybrid system use under 3% as the solar element to keep costs down and ensure adequate charging during night time with a larger wind impeller.

Energy – XS micro and small power solutions combine the proven Solar Photo Voltaic technology and Wind Turbines to give assured energy yields. As these solutions use Solar PV technology and wind generators, they have been dubbed as Solar / Wind hybrids. Incidentally the charge controllers used in our systems can also integrate other non conventional power generation options like thermal, solar thermal and hydro to increase the scope of hybrid power generation.

Please note that Energy-XS installations require a grid connection for all models except the XS-25 variety. The electricity generated by the turbine is primarily used to power the building. When more electricity then required by the site is produced, it is automatically exported to the grid. Offline versions can also be made available if required.
Payback times for the Energy-XS wind turbines are around 7 years and may be less depending on wind speeds and installation costs. Again multiple installations on the same site may reduce the payback time.
