The Need for Certification• Performance specifications and tests are
not standardized• Consumers need greater assurance of
safety, functionality, and durability• Agencies providing financial assistance
lack performance assurance• Manufacturers indicate that certification
is important to their business
![Page 33: Small Wind Turbine Selection - Nebraska · Small Wind Turbine Selection R. Nolan Clark Small Wind Systems Consultant. Amarillo, TX](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020100/5b03fecc7f8b9a2e228d2d08/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Turbine Certification
• Uses AWEA Small Wind Turbine Performance and Safety Standard
• Includes Turbine Field Testing• Conducted by an independent
certification body Small Wind Certification Council
• www.smallwindcertification.org
![Page 34: Small Wind Turbine Selection - Nebraska · Small Wind Turbine Selection R. Nolan Clark Small Wind Systems Consultant. Amarillo, TX](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020100/5b03fecc7f8b9a2e228d2d08/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Elements of the Certification
• Rated Annual Energy– Kilowatt-hours per year at a uniform wind speed
• Rated Power– Instantaneous power at a uniform wind speed
• Rated Sound Level– Level not exceeded 95% of time with a uniform
average wind speed• Meets Safety and Durability Requirements
