NEW Skystream Hybrid 6

NEW Skystream Hybrid 6:

Six panel tracking system delivers more energy from Skystream 3.7

The Skystream Hybrid 6 wind-solar system increases energy production of the solar array by up to 35% compared with a fixed mount system. This helps offset changes in weather through the seasons and delivers more overall energy in many locations.
