Abstract In this paper, an energy monitoring system for small scale wind turbine is proposed. The monitoring system process includes measuring wind turbine power output (voltage and current) and storing systems. The measurement results will be stored in a micro SD at the real time. All processes for measuring and storing data in a data logger were carried out by a microcontroller through several sensors and storage media. The data logger were designed and implemented as small as possible to save material and enhance the performance of serial communication between components inside. Hence, most of components are installed by Surface Mounting Device (SMD) packaging resulted a compact data logger size as 7cm x 8cm. Furthermore, by using FAT32 system files, the data logger is able to operate a micro SD with a size of up to 32GB. Finally, this data logger shows a good capability for measuring voltage, current and storing the results into the SD card including the measurement period.
