Bergey wind turbines are modern wind-driven generators which
benefit from more than eighteen years of Bergey Windpower R&D, production, and the
delivery of wind turbines to all fifty states in the USA and more than sixty countries
around the world. They incorporate the latest technologies in aerodynamics,
structures and electronic control systems. Made in USA.
The BWC EXCEL is a 10 kilowatt wind turbine designed to supply most
of the electricity for an average total electric home in areas with an average wind speed
of 12 mph (DOE Wind Class 3). In remote locations it can charge batteries for
stand-alone applications or pump water electrically without the need for batteries.
Simple and rugged, the BWC EXCEL is designed for high reliability, low maintenance, and
automatic operation in adverse weather conditions. It is available in three
versions.
 | BWC EXCEL-S: a 240VAC, 60 Hz (50 Hz optional), single phase utility interconnect
system. Includes a grid-tie inverter. |
|
| BWC EXCEL-R: a 120VDC (240VDC and 48 VDC optional)
remote battery charging system. Includes the VCS-10 Control System. |
|
| BWC EXCEL-PD: a 3 phase AC system that can drive submersible or surface-mounted
pumps. Includes the PCU-10 Control System. |

The performance data shown in the two thumbnail images above have
been compiled in accordance with industry standards as established by the American Wind
Energy Association. The power curve is
corrected to standard temperature and pressure. The estimated monthly energy output (kilowatt-hours) assumes the
AWEA standard distribution of wind speeds.
Utility Interconnect
The BWC EXCEL-S is for homes or businesses that are served by
utility power. This wind turbine can be used to reduce utility bills. In such
applications, the home is served simultaneously by the wind turbine and the utility.
When the wind turbine is generating power, the current is fed into the home through
a synchronous (grid-tie) inverter that converts the turbine power into a form that is
compatible with the utility power. The electric meter is slowed down by the amount
of power being generated by the wind. If the wind is providing more power than is
being used in the home, the meter will actually turn backward in states that permit
"net billing." In other states, excess power is sold back to the utility
company.
