The DOSPEL DRAGON 1000 is a single 1 kW vertical-axis wind turbine: start-up from 1.2 m/s, 44 dB, 50 kg, 100 × 170 cm, made in Poland. It differs from the 3 kW package only in turbine count and total power (1 kW against 3 × 1 kW), so it suits sites where 1 kW is enough and one turbine is planned, together with the SolarInvert WIN 1000-48 wind inverter. It works in OFF-GRID and ON-GRID systems.

How the DRAGON 1000 differs from the DRAGON 3 kW package
| Parameter | DRAGON 1000 | DRAGON 3 kW package 3×1000 |
|---|---|---|
| Number of turbines | 1 | 3 |
| Total power | 1 kW | 3 kW (3 × 1 kW) |
| Wind inverter | SolarInvert WIN 1000-48 for one turbine | SolarInvert WIN 2400-48 for three turbines |
| Start-up wind, sound level and weight of one turbine | 1.2 m/s, 44 dB, 50 kg | 1.2 m/s, 44 dB, 50 kg |
| Minimum distance between turbines | 1 m, if more than one turbine is installed | 1 m (between the package turbines) |
Choose the DRAGON 1000 when 1 kW is enough or you will install a single turbine. If you need 3 kW of total power and the 3-turbine configuration recommended by the manufacturer, look at the DOSPEL DRAGON 3 kW package 3×1000. In both cases the bracket and the brake controller are sold separately.
Vertical wind turbine for home: who is the DRAGON 1000 for?
The DRAGON 1000 is a single 1 kW turbine, so it suits a house or plot where 1 kW is enough. According to the manufacturer, DRAGON turbines suit homes and plots, and can also complement photovoltaics.
It can be installed on the ground, near trees and buildings without a separate mast, and also on roofs, walls, a mast, farm buildings and garden gazebos. The design catches wind from all directions, including wind reflected from buildings, trees or the ground.
Wind generator and inverter: what to connect to the turbine
The turbine generator is three-phase AC, so it connects to the home grid or to batteries through a wind inverter, which turns the turbine’s output into grid-compatible electricity. The turbine is designed to go with the SolarInvert WIN 1000-48 wind inverter for the DOSPEL DRAGON 1000 turbine. This inverter starts working from 26 V, while most mass-market grid inverters start at roughly 150 V.
Turbines can be connected in series or in parallel, and the minimum distance between turbines is 1 m.
For off-grid systems the manufacturer offers a controller for 1, 2 or 3 generators and for 24/48 V battery banks.
Installation: bracket and brake controller
The mounting bracket is made of 6 mm steel sheet and suits a flat or pitched (45°) roof; mounting screws are included. The bracket and the brake controller are sold separately.
The electric brake works with a brake controller of 0–1000 V (depending on version). The DRAGON 1000 base is a separate product.
How strong a wind must a wind turbine mast withstand?
The Lithuanian Hydrometeorological Service states that the highest wind speed ever recorded in Lithuania was 40 m/s:
“The highest wind speed recorded in Lithuania’s observation history was 40 m/s.”

We handle it for you. We select the equipment for your site, deliver anywhere in Lithuania, install and connect it. We help assess the location and mast height and choose the turbine and inverter pair.
What else the turbine needs to work
A wind turbine does not connect to the home grid by itself: it needs a wind inverter. The inverter turns the turbine’s output into grid-compatible electricity. Without it the turbine spins but does not feed electricity into the house.
The matching unit for this turbine is the SolarInvert WIN 1000-48 wind inverter for DOSPEL DRAGON 1000 turbine, factory-configured for the DRAGON power curve. Its key feature is a start-up voltage from 26 V, whereas most mass-market grid inverters start only at roughly 150 V. So in weak wind, in the mornings, evenings and on calm days, the turbine can still deliver power instead of standing idle. DRAGON produces electricity from a wind of just 1.2 m/s, and that advantage makes sense only with an inverter like this.
