The Southwest Windpower Skystream 3.7 is the first all-inclusive UL Recognized wind generator (with controls and inverter built in) that provides quiet, clean electricity in low winds. Designed to be grid tied and to supplement or completely cover the power needs of residential homes or small businesses. Available for 120, 240 and 208 VAC operation (120VAC model for off-grid only). Comes with a guy-less monopole or sectional monopole tower, or a kit for assembling a guyed tower with locally purchased pipe and anchors. Its sleek 12-ft diameter, swept-wing blades and elegant form make Skystream an attractive addition to any home, and because it operates at a low rpm, Skystream is as quiet as the trees blowing in the wind.
If the site fits the following criteria, Southwest Windpower's Skystream 3.7 may work for you:

  • At least 10 mph average wind speed (best results at 12 mph or more)
  • The property is at least a half-acre and has unobstructed views
  • The local zoning allows a structure that is at least 54 inch tall
  • The utility has an existing interconnection agreement for homeowners

With a rated capacity of 2.4 kW, the Skystream grid-tie models can provide an estimated energy production of 400 kWh per month in areas with a 12 mph average wind speed. The Skystream will begin producing power at about 8 mph. At about 20 mph, the blades achieve a rotational speed of 330 rpm. This is Skystream's rated speed and will remain at that speed if the wind speed increases. In very high winds, the Skystream will automatically shut down.
The Skyview Wireless PC Interface works with the Skyview Software to send and receive data to and from the Skystream wind turbine so that you can monitor system performance, change setup options, install updates, and troubleshoot the wind turbine. Connection to the PC is via the included wireless-to-USB interface.
NOTE: The 120 volt model of Skystream is not Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Recognized and may not be connected to the electric utility grid. The 120 VAC version is limited to 1.5kW continuous power, as is designed for off-grid "AC-coupled" systems with a bi-directional battery-based inverter (Sunny Island, OutBack, Magnum sine wave, or Schneider XW)
Skystream wind system includes the Skystream 3.7, choice of monopole or guyed tower, Skyview monitoring software and wireless-to-USB adaptor, the Skylevel tower leveling kit, and a 5-year limited warranty.

Skystream 3.7 is available for Land or Marine Applications in a voltage of 120, 208 or 240 VAC, with multiple height tower options in Monopole and Guyed Towers.
