Abstract :
The adoption of renewable energy based systems for electricity generation, leaving aside fossil based energy systems is of paramount importance to humanity. The purpose of this paper is the design of a small wind rotor that meets the electric power requirement of a small house in Guildford, UK. The conceptual design developed comes from the evaluation of the existing science and technology in terms of wind rotor design and their adjustment to the data, information and facts that apply in Guildford.
