", diesel generator, Wind Turbines, or other power generators; is achieved through a system controller.

A system controller operates as follows: If wind power is available, the energy generated goes to the load and the excess goes to the battery. When wind power is unavailable the diesel is operated at full power to meet load demand. Excess diesel generated energy over load demand goes to the battery. When the battery is fully charged, the diesel is stopped and the load is supplied by wind power supplemented by the battery.

The principle behind a system controller is to maximize the use of inexpensive energy while minimizing dependency on more expensive diesel generated power.
