Important Home Turbine Wind Information


Home Turbine Wind

Studies by the U.S. Department of Energy have shown that the if the wind from Texas, Kansas, and North Dakota was harvested, it could provide enough electricity to power the entire nation. In the last few years, the United States added more wind energy to the grid than any other country. However, many countries are adding large scale wind energy as a major energy source- Germany, Denmark, India, China, etc; making wind the fastest growing energy source in the world.

However, you do not have to wait on the government to catch up. People have used small scale wind energy since ancient times. There are a number of reasons wind power is attractive. Farmers and ranchers, from isolated in rural areas, have long utilized wind turbines as a supplemental power source. Meanwhile, others have discovered that the expensive cost of electricity( from a power company) can be eliminated/ reduced with the use of a wind turbine. A small on site system can lower an electric bill from 40%-90%; depending on wind availability. The higher the annual wind speed is, the more efficient the system is. Since the wind is a clean and renewable energy source, those seeking to be environmentally friendly are utilizing the power of the wind. Wind power does not produce air pollutants or greenhouses gas, like other energy sources.

Whatever, the reason behind the use; wind power is a multifold benefit. It provides clean renewable energy; while simultaneously reducing, or eliminating an electrical bill.

There is one environmental downside to turbines. Occasionally, a bird may be injured or killed as it flies into the system. However, this is actually very rare. More birds are killed from flying into a high rise building, then in wind turbines.

The only cost involved with a wind turbine is the materials to build one, or the cost to buy one. Generally, the cost of maintenance is about 1% of what the system cost to build/buy. It only takes a small fraction of land to build it, but location is very important. Then, the home turbine wind will be ready to utilize. Some areas may require permits. Before building or buying a system, you should contact a local representative. Ask what permits or certifications are required to install a wind turbine.

There are some areas that already have the availability to buy into grid-connected turbine power. This will link a person into an already established large scale wind power grid. Grid power can power the entire home, without electricity. However, you must pay for the connection.

On the other hand, some rural area property owners are allowing a private party to put wind turbine(s) on their property. The land owner will be paid a rent on the land. The turbine does not interfere with the continued agricultural use, or ranching capability of the land.

There are a few challenges to utilizing wind power. Wind is intermittent, and may not always blow when the electricity is needed. The only way to store the power produced, is with a battery. The chief complaint, by those against wind power, is purely aesthetic. In other words, they don’t think that clean, renewable, cheap wind energy is a good thing…based on their opinion that the wind turbine isn’t pretty!

Wind turbines have too many far reaching benefits, to be concerned with how they look. Whether buying a prefabricated system, or building your own system, wind turbines are a wise investment.
