12.4.2.1 Wind/Diesel
Wind/diesel systems work well
where sunlight is limited, as
above the Arctic Circle or below
the Antarctic Circle
Wind turbines have worked well
at the South Pole Station, but
diesel generators are also hard
at work there
Gasoline engines also can be
used, but may lack the life of a
heavy diesel engine
Diesel fuel costs $2.90; gasoline
$2.77 as of 3/15/2010

The controller could run the diesel engine only when the
battery voltage drops below a very low set point, such as
10.5 volts
The diesel would be stopped when the battery
voltage rose to approximately 13.9 volts
A battery-charging procedure minimizes the number of
engine starts and ensures full-load engine operation
