Wind Turbine Profit Calculator
Estimate the annual revenue and profit of a wind turbine.
A turbine's revenue depends on its output and what you earn per kilowatt-hour.
The math behind it
Annual kWh = rated kW x capacity factor x 8760 hours. Revenue = kWh x price per kWh.
Worked example
A 2 MW turbine at 30% capacity and 8 c/kWh earns about $420k/year.
FAQ
What is the capacity factor?
