Power One (now ABB) had their Aurora GT inverter for wind that I
believe worked down<br>
to around 48 volts. It was (is ?) an MPPT wind inverter kind of
like the SMA Windy Boy was<br>
so would raise its input voltage as the wind blows faster.<br>
<br>
Now that ABB has taken over Power One, I can't seem to find this
one on their web site<br>
but I probably just haven't looked long and hard enough.<br>
<br>
I hope it's still available. It did a pretty good job as I
remember.<br>

have an inquiry from a fellow with a 48V wind generator
(it puts out between 48 and 60VDC). It's an old Cyclone,
originally made in Canada. He's wanting a grid-tie
inverter to lessen his electrical bill; I know he could
use an Outback but he doesn't want to fool with
batteries. Anyone got any ideas what inverter might work
for him?</span></p>
