Leading Edge 6kW Wind Turbine (Discontinued)

The Leading Edge 6kW Wind Turbine gives excellent energy yield at everyday wind speeds whilst our active flight control computer keeps the larger swept area under control in high winds and storm conditions.

An annual energy output of between 7,000 - 11,000kWh given a 5-6m/s average wind speed respectively is feasible. The high efficiency axial flux alternator features the latest rare earth Neodymium Iron Boron magnet technology which gives effortless start-up with no cogging in the lowest wind speeds allowing the LE-6000 to be generating power whilst other turbines remain stationary.

Furthermore, our unique downwind blade design is optimised through advanced aeronautical engineering to maximise energy yield whilst keeping rotor noise to a minimum and eliminating tower wake effects. The LE-6000 has been designed to operate with the successful and established 'SMA 6000' inverter designed for connection to a single phase supply, or can be installed on two 'SMA 3000' inverters on a three phase supply (under the G83 regulations).

Our control system works in conjunction with the inverter and provides over-voltage and general power control throughout the operating envelope of the turbine. A 15m tapered, sectional free standing tower has been designed for exclusive use with the LE-6000.

Hydraulic lift and lowering capabilities of the tower allows positioning in locations which may otherwise be impossible and allow fast, safe and easy installation and maintenance of the tower top equipment. As with all Leading Edge products, the Leading Edge 6kW Wind Turbine has been designed and manufactured in the UK to the highest international standards to give the maximum performance to value in the most demanding environments.

Leading Edge 6kW Wind Turbine Power Output Curve

The graph below shows the typical power produced for the Leading Edge 6kW Wind Turbine at different wind speeds.

	Blade diameter Blade diameter is an important thing to look at when comparing turbines, since it effects how much power can be captured from the wind. This turbine has a blade diameter of 6.00 metres.
	Wind speed If you are thinking of buying a Leading Edge 6kW Wind Turbine, we'd advise measuring the local wind resource first to give you a better idea of how much power you can expect to generate.
