Conception is from the converting of wind energy, which flows across the wind turbine in mechanic work needed for compressor working. The wind motor one part of energy transform into mechanical work, part of energy is unused and part of energy of stead flow is transformed into eddy after wind rotor.The aim was rendering of technical analysis for equipment, which would use the wind with parameters for chosen area and whole unit would supply power in peak demand. Unit consists of wind turbine, which pushes compressor. Compressor pumps air into the compressed air storage. The air is used for power producing in time of peak demand.
