The equipment needed for micro-generation of useful amounts of electricity is likely to require the investment of considerable sums of money. If you're seriously thinking about producing your own energy, you'll first need to investigate the availability of renewable energy at your location. There are charts published and viewable online which will indicate approximate average amounts of both solar and wind energy for your postcode, but these are unlikely to be precise enough for the basis of an investment which may run into tens of thousands of pounds for the generation equipment.

Until recently, the only realistic option would be to first engage the services of a renewable energy specialist to carry out a costly site survey. Thankfully, Better Generation have now invented the Power Predictor as a new first step.

Power Predictor is a research tool which will help you make the right decisions before investing in the expensive equipment needed to generate energy from wind and solar power. It may be that you still decide to engage an engineer to professionally assess your site, but the Power Predictor will help you understand your options before needing to do so, and at a considerably lower cost.

By continuously recording accurate data about wind speed/direction and solar irradiance, the Power Predictor can forecast how much energy you are likely to generate, how much you will save, and make recommendations about which turbines and solar panels to use.

What's included?

Wind Direction Vane
PV Solar Sensor
3 Cup Anemometer
Weatherproof Data Logger

This tool is ideal for anyone looking to generate their own energy, or as a teaching aid for schools and colleges. Whilst Power Predictor may not be able to match the accuracy of site survey equipment costing thousands of pounds, it is eminently capable of providing genuinely useful data at a fraction of the cost in a package which is easily installable by the competent DIYer.
