DOMUS 1 kW 3-Blade Vertical Axis Wind Turbine

The DOMUS 1 kW 3-blade is a vertical-axis wind turbine with a hybrid Darrieus/Savonius rotor: maximum power 1 kW (1000 W), rated power 750 W, starting at 3.2 m/s. It is a 3-blade DOMUS version, so its starting wind speed is higher than that of the 6-blade versions, which start at 1.2 to 1.6 m/s. It suits buyers who want 1 kW of maximum power and the standard 3-blade layout rather than the lowest starting threshold.

Technical specifications

How the DOMUS 1 kW 3-blade differs from the other DOMUS versions

The four versions compared here share the same hybrid Darrieus/Savonius rotor, 80 × 80 × 130 cm dimensions, 12 kg weight and noise below 40 dB. They differ only in blades and power, and with them the starting wind speed.

Choose the DOMUS 1 kW 3-blade if you need 1 kW of maximum power and the standard 3-blade layout suits you. If the wind at your site is weaker, look at the DOMUS 1 kW 6-blade: the same 1 kW maximum and 750 W rated power, but it starts at 1.6 m/s instead of 3.2 m/s. If lower power is enough and you want the turbine to start even earlier, see the DOMUS 500 W 6-blade (from 1.2 m/s) or the DOMUS 750 W 6-blade (from 1.4 m/s).

Vertical axis wind turbine for home and small business: what is the DOMUS 1 kW 3-blade for?

This is the standard 3-blade version with the highest DOMUS maximum power (1 kW). The choice rests on power and layout rather than a lower starting wind speed: 3 blades and 3.2 m/s.

With batteries (Stand Alone system) it is meant for storing energy, and connected to the grid (Grid Connected system) for reducing the electricity bill. The manufacturer states that the turbine can be installed within minutes without permission from local or national authorities.

PLUS, Stand Alone, Grid Connected and Full: what is the difference?

This model comes in four configurations, and batteries are not included in any of them.

• PLUS – rotor M28 + generator M12 + rectifier M36 + mast M40 (85 cm)
• Stand Alone – PLUS + controller M26 + off-grid inverter M22 (battery not included)
• Grid Connected – PLUS + controller M26 + grid-tie inverter M34 (battery not included)
• Full – PLUS + controller M26 + M22 + M34 (batteries not included)

Wind turbine for 12 V and 24 V batteries: which system does it suit?

The specification lists 12/24 V DC battery systems, while the generator output is three-phase AC up to 36 V. Batteries are not part of the package, so they have to be chosen separately. We check which batteries and inverters work together before you order.

What wind does the mast have to withstand?

When choosing, people usually look at power, and the mast stays in the background. According to the Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service:

“The highest wind speed recorded in Lithuania’s observation history was 40 m/s.”

So it matters not only at what wind speed the turbine starts, but also how the mast is anchored.

We handle it for you. We select the equipment for your site, deliver anywhere in Lithuania, install and connect it.
