This is the smallest of INVAP´s
wind driven generators. Its rated maximum power is 500
W. It is typically used to feed communications equipment
or telemetering systems. Its power is also appropiate for the
energy supply for a small rural home.
The photograph shows an IVS-500
Wind Turbine installed at 2200 meters altitude
on Cerro Auca Mahuida in the Province of Neuquén.
This generator works in combination with solar panels to supply
a telephony system.
