Abstract
Small-scale distributed wind generation faces challenges in being cost competitive due to recent advances in solar photovoltaic and battery storage technology. Reductions in levelized cost of energy (LCOE) can be achieved by improvements in aerodynamic efficiency, generator controller design, or reducing cost of manufacture. In this paper we present a case study detailing the commercialization of a novel 200 W high-efficiency diffuser augmented wind turbine (DAWT). Results include increased rotor efficiency, bespoke controller design, and the novel use of manufacturing processes. Findings and conclusions are of direct interest to small wind turbine designers as they seek to reduce LCOE.
