John,
I spoke with Jay at SWWP this morning!  He did tell me about the new 2kw
turbine being developed and I was intrigued by it. I guess it will have a
built in inverter and be a direct grid connected unit?
Jay had also stated that they have been working with SMA and need some more
equipment to make the H40-80 functional.

I was hoping to provide a quote next week but will likely mention the
upcoming models too!

Jeremy,

I've been asking around myself a bit.  I asked SMA, and they said that I'd
need to contact the individual wind turbine manufacturers to find out,
which I've done.  Maybe John B. might want to say more here in that regard
from SMA's perspective?

Bergey told me that they're going to have a product package to adapt the
XL.1 for direct grid tie sometime later this year.

I've emailed SWWP twice, no response yet.  Guess it's time to call if I
want to find out more.  There was a publicly released article on
solaraccess.com a few weeks ago that said that SWWP was coming out with a
new 2KW direct grid-tie package that they had co-developed with NREL (or
something like that).  Maybe that meant that NREL had done the testing, I'm
not sure.  I haven't seen anything from SWWP themselves talking about this
new product, though, and they don't respond to my emails.

That's what I know to date,
