Output Summary
Output potential is moderate under your current wind and site assumptions.
Results are planning estimates. Actual production depends on wind distribution, hub height, turbulence, turbine curve, and downtime.
Typical outcome
Higher CF
Better exposure often improves annual generation performance.
Typical outcome
Moderate-strong output
Common baseline for preliminary project screening.
Typical outcome
Lower CF
Detailed site assessment becomes more important before investment.
Typical outcome
High uncertainty
Conservative assumptions are recommended for planning.
Typical outcome
Reduced production
Site or hub-height optimization may be needed for viability.
Typical outcome
Portfolio value
Useful for balancing generation profiles and risk.
For a 10 kW turbine at 28% base capacity factor with 12% losses:

This calculator estimates annual wind generation using rated turbine capacity, capacity-factor assumptions, system losses, wind-speed context, and site characteristics. It then converts projected energy output into annual electricity value based on your avoided or monetized kWh rate.
For investment-grade planning, incorporate measured wind distribution, turbine power curve, hub-height shear, and availability assumptions.
Turbine + Site Inputs → Net Capacity Factor → Annual kWh → Energy Value
Use conservative assumptions during early screening and test multiple scenarios. Output can vary significantly with small changes in wind resource quality and siting decisions.
Pair this with our solar panel sizing calculator and solar ROI calculator for renewable mix planning.
