Turbine Controller




what is the diffrence between a solar panel charge controller and a wind turbine controller?

they both charge a 12v or bank of 12v batteries? i have built my turbine but confused on what controller to use?thanks

lets start with basics

the solar power supplies DC and it is running all morning, the power it supplies not as much as the wind turbine so the controller and the power it supplies mostly constant becasue the sun changes slowly

the wind turbine supplies AC with diffrent frequncy so it needs to be converted into DC then converted back to AC with 60 or 50 Hz frequency, the power it supplies much higher than the solar power and the wind changes frequently so the ammount of power it supplies isnt the same so that the controller needs to monitor that power in order to charge the batteries
