As energy costs rise and fossil fuel supplies dry out, more and more people are becoming concerned with the availability and future cost of energy. Energy sources are beginning to emerge that have never been as cost effective, but are completely renewable. Many of these energies are completely environment-friendly, as well.
Whether you want to get off the grid entirely, or simply reduce your energy costs, the decision to build wind turbine generators is a way to stay green and save money.
If you decide to build wind turbine generators you need to consider your location, neighborhood, zoning laws and the amount of electrical power that you hope to generate. You need at least a acre of open land, or a tower higher than anything in the area so there is room for the blades to catch wind and turn. The higher the average wind speed in your area, the better your energy savings will be.
These wind powered wonders can provide a lot of bang for the buck if you have a good location, in a high wind area. Some people have managed to build wind turbine machines that power their homes, farms and still generate additional power.
And any additional energy made by your wind turbines that you don't use will go back into the grid, and your power company will cut you a check. If you aren't wired to the grid you may store the extra power in batteries for backup.
Most people end up with a smaller version of a wind turbine. You may have limited space for a wind generator, but you can still get some good savings if you get a decent wind speed in your location.
Many have built homemade wind turbines already and can save up to 50% of their energy bill with just one turbine. These types of turbines can also be made in only a few weeks, depending on how much effort you are willing to put in and how much spare time you have.
Turbines are very little maintenance and can last a long time. They are cheap and can be mounted almost anywhere on a simple pole. Help the environment and save lots of money for years on your power bill! - 15485
