Two Hypotheses on Wind Power Plants
Research with the purpose of confirming or disproving hypotheses on the
connection between prices and capacity per mill in a greater wind mill park.
More about this project...
The Frequency Converter
The construction of a frequency converter for Tvindkraft, which can double
the effect of the mill - from 450 kW to 1000 kW.
