Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine

A horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) is a wind power generator with a rotor shaft parallel to the ground, primarily driven by aerodynamic lift to convert wind energy into electricity efficiently. It is typically equipped with a yaw system to automatically adjust the rotor’s orientation to the wind direction for optimal power generation. Due to its mature technology and high energy conversion efficiency, HAWTs are widely used in large-scale onshore and offshore wind farms, particularly in high-wind-speed areas. However, their tall tower structures and complex maintenance requirements result in higher initial investment and operational costs.

Application Scenario：

• Rural Areas: Residential HAWTs, combined with solar energy, provide stable off-grid power in remote areas with limited or unreliable electricity.
• Mart Homes: Integrated with energy storage, HAWTs enable efficient power management, storing excess energy for stable household supply.
• Vacation Homes: Ideal for rural retreats and eco-farms, HAWTs offer clean energy, reducing diesel reliance and carbon emissions.
