Annoying that the article is not crystal clear on the difference
between turbine and controller. It appears that the good doctor is
talking about controller technology only, but I couldn't tell for
sure. (Took a minute to give the author heck, too.)
It does appear he's talking about a controller that will squeeze
a bit more juice out of a wind turbine. I would suppose this would
fill the same sort of niche that maximum power point controllers do
in the solar PV world.
Just how much energy is contained in "low speed" wind anyhow? Is it
worth spending more money to harvest?
