Hello, and thanks for reading this.
Electricity prices are up and so I've brought back out an experimental vertical windmill I'd bought years ago. It's some 600 watt vertical windmill from Alibaba and it produces upto 24 volts, however the grid inverter I have only accepts 22 to 64(?) volts input. I've tried installing a DC to DC voltage booster, but despite it boosting the voltage high enough, my grid inverter's still reporting a 0 watt output all day long.
Here's a picture for reference:
I remember asking for help somewhere years ago where I was told that vertical windmills wasn't really worth it and so I abandoned the project, but seeing as my ~600watt/hour server farm is now costing me upwards of $1k/month I'd be plenty happy with any results really.
