Self-build small wind turbines - A review

Self-build small wind turbines are used for rural electrification in the developed and developing world as well as for educational purposes. To give an overview about self-build small wind turbines a systematic literature review was conducted. The identified literature deals with two different vertical and horizontal axis turbine designs. The vertical axis turbines are both prototypes while one of the horizontal axis designs, the design by Piggott is widely used in rural electrification projects. Different papers dealing with the optimization of the Piggott design exist. In retrospect the conduction of a holistic review was not possible due to limited resources and length of this review. Nevertheless it can give a quick overview and a starting point for further research.
