**1. Introduction**

Although the increasing importance of wind energy in the global energy market (see, e.g., [1]) is mainly due to large-scale installations, Small Wind Turbines (SWTs) are also an important player in this field. This includes prosumer applications (e.g., in hybrid installations [2]), isolated sites operation (for example, to power transmitter stations or remote islands [3]), and multi-rotor array applications (a substitute for the single, big-size rotor [4]). This article presents the outcomes of a case study of an SWT fit for prosumer suburban application in European wind conditions.
