        Is it possible to add a small wind turbine?  Thank you,

        You can use SAM's library editor to add a small turbine. Please see the instructions on 
    this post
.
If you need help adding the turbine, please attach a copy of the turbine's power curve, along with its nameplate capacity and rotor diameter in a reply to this post, and I will create a library file for you.
Best regards,
Paul.

        Thanks Paul.  The link doesn't seem to work.  I read your instructions to add a turbine by going through the large wind section.   Is this link the same?
Thanks,
Rick

        Sorry about that Rick. I fixed the link, so it should work now. And, yes the link points to the instructions for adding a turbine to the large wind turbine library. You can use the same procedure to add a turbine to the small wind turbine library, "SAM/Small Scale Wind Turbine Library." It uses the SmallScaleWindTurbine library type.
Best regards,
Paul.

        Paul,  I successfully entered the performance curve but have looked everywhere to add the capital cost data for our turbine.  Thanks again for your time
