You can run it from the batteries and then use the solar panel to keep the batteries charged. It will run only from the batteries. You will also need the charge controller for the solar panel to keep it from overcharging the batteries.

At 5 MPH, the wind generator turbine would supply approximately 100 watts of power with a 12 volt system. With a 24 volt system it will provide approximately a 150 watts. It will depend on the irregularity of the wind.
