Products Overview

Welcome to Renewable Components, your online source for wind turbine, hydro turbine and renewable energy parts.  We specialise in the design, manufacture and sales of wind turbines, blades, hydro turbine parts,  permanent magnet generators and associated components. Our parts have found many uses in different renewable energy related devices.  If you don't find what you're looking for on our website, please email or call with your requirements.  We are currently seeking Distributors and Installers for all products in all countries, links to/from your website also wanted.  If you are keen to develop your own range of products using our components, we can offer a complete product design & development service also.  Contact us for details.

In April 2010 the Government will introduce a Feed-In-Tariff scheme (FIT scheme) which will offer end users of Solar PV Energy Systems a Guaranteed Tax Free, Index Linked Income for 25 years for all power produced from your Solar PV system (rate will be up to 41.3p/kW produced). As a direct result of these FIT rates we are able to offer our systems at a cost which will make good financial sense, while offering you, the customer, a tried and tested technology which will significantly reduce your reliance on both Fossil Fuels and the Electricity Energy Giants.

A window of opportunity exists over the next two to three years to install a Solar PV system and take full advantage of the FIT income, electricity costs savings and payment from the export of unused power. Our Solar PV offer is unique within the industry, and has been designed and priced to be very competitive and financially attractive. See Our Offer for full details, or Apply Now to get your own system installed.

Wind turbine

MiniWind 2200-24, MiniWind 2200-48 & MiniWind 2200-300 (Grid-Tie System)

The MiniWind 2200 series is part of our core product, Rugged Downwind turbine range, and incorporates our unique RC2200-20 & RC2200-105 PM Generators.

3 Models available :

  • MiniWind 2200-24, designed specifically to recharge 24V Lead Acid Battery Banks with a capacity of over 400Ahr
  • MiniWind 2200-48 will charge 48V 400Ahr Battery Banks. Each low voltage turbine is supplied with a 100A 3-Phase Bridge Rectifier box, giving a DC Output, for direct connection to your batteries, via our unique low voltage controller (optional, but recommended), this allows you to take the three phase power down the tower and right to your battery bank, thus saving you money by allowing the use of lighter cabling, and also minimising voltage losses.
  • The MiniWind 2200-300 has it's rectifier fitted in the high voltage controller, again allowing the three phase output to be brought down the tower, and along into the controller, and then into the Grid Tied Inverter.

MiniWater Pelton & Turgo Hydro Turbine Components

We have developed a unique range of Pelton & Turgo Cups, allowing the individual to manufacture complete Pelton & Turgo Turbines using a variety of generators, including our own flexible range of Permanent Magnet Generators. These Pelton/Turgo Cups are moulded in very durable Polycarbonate plastic, and are easily replaceable if they become worn or damaged. Their design allows the user to create a wide range of wheel diameters, but we can supply a moulded plastic pelton disc of 260mm diameter to match the performance of our 2200W PMG range of generators. We can supply a drawing of this wheel if you need to use the design to make a larger one for your site, although the 260mm wheel with 24 cups can handle a system of up to 5Kw, or even up to 10Kw by using 2 wheels on one shaft, with multiple jets.

Each Cup is secured to a Pelton/Turgo Disc by means of a single M6 stainless steel nut & bolt. The design of our discs gives a very robust mounting of the cups, allowing the completed pelton/turgo wheel to be used with up to 4 jets of 20mm diameter, giving powers from a few hundred watts to over 4500W. The flexibility of this design allows the user to match the pelton/turgo turbine's performance to the available water head and flow rate.
