Certification for Customers
For a purchaser of a small wind turbine certification provides an independent confirmation of:
- Power curve
- Noise
- Product design for 20 year life
-
2Certification for Manufacturers
Certification for Manufacturers
Poor quality products with exaggerated claims of power production and a short design life damage the small wind industry with loss of customer confidence. Certification products are the basis of a strong industry with quality products performing to manufacturer specifications for a design life > 20 years

Canary Islands International Test Site for small and wind turbines was born from an idea to make certification less expensive whilst also removing the “mystery” of the certification process.
The plan gained the support of the local government who made land available in an excellent location with high annual wind speeds on the island of Tenerife
Test To 61400-2 (small wind) and 61400-1 (Turbines with swept area > 200M2)
The test site is able to test small wind to 61400-2 and medium and large wind to 61400-1
