In the paper is presented a solution to solve the problem of water supply for an isolated small community where the area posses an outstanding wind potential. It is a place with a few buildings which are located near a river and is needed water for daily requirements. The water must be taken from the river and send it to a tank from where it is sending anytime where is needed. It was taken into consideration two types of wind turbine, one with horizontal axis and other with vertical axis. After studying the advantages of each one it was taken a decision to produce and install a wind turbine with horizontal axis.
