If you mean how to you wire together two or more wind turbines together before the they reach the charge controller then you have problems:
1) The voltage is AC so you either need to phase the AC output together, and feed that output into the charge controller, or
2) You rectify each output to DC (using diodes) and equalize the voltages from each before they go into the charge controller. If you do not equalize then the current from the turbine with the lower voltage could be blocked by its own rectifying diodes. Do not remove these diodes either as one could end up driving the other turbine.
3) Use a separate charge controller for each turbine then wire together downstream.
Does anyone else have any better ideas?

What kind of energy are wind turbine generators used to create?
Wind turbine generators are used to convert the kinetic (movement) energy of the wind directly into electrical energy, which is used to power electrical appliances and needs no further conversion.
How can wind be turnned into electricity?
Wind turbines with electric generators
What are the main ways we produce electricity in NZ?
Hydro electric generators wind powered generators geothermal generators
How big are wind turbine generators?
A 1.5 MW turbine is 80ms in height. A 3MW turbine is 90m in height. The world's largest-capacity turbine, the Enercon (7.58MW) is 198m in height.
Are wind generators really cost effective?
Yes, the turbines are devices the convert kinetic energy in wind and transforming it into the mechanical energy of a rotating shaft. This is converted into energy. So using wind for our energy is very cost effective. Typically, wind generators will lower your electric bill by at least 50%. In some cases, if your turbine produces power exceeding your household usage, your electric company may purchase the additional power from you.
What is a wind turnbind?
A wind turbine is a form of electric generation. On top of a tall pole there is a turbine (fan thing) and the wind spins it around. The turbine is connected to a motor which generates an electromagnetic flow from the motion.
What is the use of a windmill to drive an electric generator called?
Wind power. A wind farm. A wind turbine.
What is inside a wind turbine?
A wind turbine generates electricity by converting its kinetic energy into electric energy. The kinetic energy of the wind transfers to the turbine, and the kinetic energy of the turbine converts to electric energy as it spins within an electromagnetic field.
Why do they use copper wire for wind turbine generators?
Because copper makes the best conductors - Snakester1962 (Supervisor)
Who sells wind generators of at least 1 megawatt?
Some of the largest manufacturers of wind generators are:General Electric (GE Wind)Gamesa (A Spanish Company with global operations)MitsubishiSiemens
Is the wind energy same as wind turbine?
Wind energy is converted into electricity by spinning wind turbine. Any electric motor that is powered by electricity will generate electricity if you spin it yourself very fast.
What fuel is used in windmills?
Windmills harness wind power, and were originally used for grinding grain. Today, the wind energy is converted into electricity by turbine generators.
