Having things flailing around in the breeze is bound to be expensive. PV is good that way. Is it difficult to do the service yourself?]]> Wind turbine servicing costs https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182486#Comment_182486 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182486#Comment_182486 Tue, 20 Aug 2013 12:55:16 +0100 fostertom Wind turbine servicing costs https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182590#Comment_182590 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182590#Comment_182590 Wed, 21 Aug 2013 11:36:41 +0100 candlemaker Wind turbine servicing costs https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182599#Comment_182599 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182599#Comment_182599 Wed, 21 Aug 2013 13:34:25 +0100 SteamyTea
It may be worth comparing the service costs against energy produced, the annual kWh rather than the size of turbine. or the cost of the turbine.

How is the new PV working?]]> Wind turbine servicing costs https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182601#Comment_182601 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182601#Comment_182601 Wed, 21 Aug 2013 13:47:02 +0100 candlemaker Wind turbine servicing costs https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182603#Comment_182603 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=11044&Focus=182603#Comment_182603 Wed, 21 Aug 2013 13:50:53 +0100 SteamyTea And how are the new lids working on the water tanks?

Not ideal as you still have that long pipe run, then when you have a bit more time you can plumb it in properly.
Though that does depend on how easy it is to wire in.

Been monitoring the import/export at a community centre as they have the same problem. Found a way to actually find out what is going where which is useful.]]>
