Wind Energy…More Than Affordable for the Home

By Admin

The first usage of wind power dates back more than three thousand years. Windmills, which we all know from literature, were used primarily in the west between 1300 and the late 1800′s. None of this means anything to the modern homeowner, considering a wind turbine as a possible alternative energy source, however. What you do need to know is that wind power is not as expensive to impalement as you might think. This may sound funny, but you must determine first, if it is windy enough where you live, to justify a wind turbine. Many use wind power as a back up to solar, while still others use them both in conjunction, as an alternative energy package. Just how much energy can a wind turbine produce? Again, we must determine how windy it is where you are planning to install it. This is not a question about whether it is ever windy where you live, it is probably windy during storms, but that is merely an observation about the weather. What you want to know about is the long-term average wind speed for your area, or historic climate data, not day-to-day weather. Obviously it will produce a greater amount of energy the more the small turbine spins. So what exactly is a small wind turbine. They are designed for individual homes, farms, and small businesses, and are electric generators that utilize wind energy to produce clean, emissions-free renewable power. They are defined as having rated capacities of up to 100 kilowatts. So if you were thinking that one wind generator will power your house, I’m sorry but it won’t. Keep in mind that the wind turbine is simply a collector just like a solar panel is. In this case the collector is the spinning rotor, made up of a number of blades that rotate to turn the electrical generator. Small blades result in a small rotor diameter, which translates into a small collector area, which further translates into small amounts of generated electricity.

Positioning is Very Important

It Must Be High Enough to Catch the Wind
To properly access the wind flow and generate enough electricity, wind turbines are installed on high towers that rise above any trees or surrounding buildings. Your roof top might not be the right place unless a tower is utilized. It is advisable to get your neighbors permission before installing such a structure. For whatever reason you chose not to have a high enough tower, it won’t matter when it comes to generating adequate energy. It is better not to install a wind turbine in the first place, rather than to not have it high enough. There is simply little energy in low winds that you can convert into usable electricity. Is it better to have many wind turbines or one larger one? To answer this question, you first have to determine what it is exactly that you plan to power. Are we talking about an all electric home, or perhaps one that uses other energy sources such as natural gas? Considering that most homes do have more than one energy source, the average household consumes about 1,000 kWh of electricity per month, or about 12,000 kWh per year. Depending on your wind resource and the tower height required to get the wind turbine above the trees, a wind system designed to generate that kind of electric capacity would have to have a very large rotor. The price tag could easily exceed $50,000.00 to install. Another option could be to have multiple smaller turbines. This of course would depend on the space you have available to erect the amount of towers needed....continue

Home Wind Turbines

This is the ultimate guide for home wind turbines or residential wind turbines. Learn how residential wind power really works.
This 45 page e-book, full of pictures and diagrams to explain the concepts, offers full easy to understand instructions on to build a windmill from scratch.
include are complete instructions for 1,000 watt and 3,000 watt versions

Here is a sample of the insider secrets you’ll learn:

  • how to make FREE homemade wind turbine blades and it will only take about an hour to finish a set of 3.
  • a page full of equations and examples of how to use them to figure out power, rpm, tsr, windspeed etc. (units are in miles per hour and feet)
  • how to find FREE fork lift batteries and how to make them as good as new
  • making a homemade de-sulfator so you can “pulse” any battery back into new condition
  • what kind of generator to look for and how to get the best prices
  • how to make a simple “furling” system to protect the windmill in high winds
  • The package also includes:
    The DC Motor Analyzer software

    At first glance of the Home Wind Turbines web site, you know you are dealing with an expert. The author knows what he is talking about. Complete with answers to commonly asked questions like:

    Q: Can I really get free batteries
    A: Absolutely, yes. In the book I show pictures of 2 forklift batteries I picked up for free. These are each 24 volts, 700 amp hours. Or 12 volts at 1400 amp hours if you parallel the two halves. Both batteries together are 12 volts at 2800 amp hours. That is the equivalent to 28 golf cart batteries. That’s $2,000 – $3,000 worth of golf cart batteries. Or about $8,000 in forklift batteries if they are purchased new.

    Q: Are the blades really free, and how long does it really take to carve them?
    A: Yep, the windmill blades are free except for the work you put into them. My first set took about 3 hours because I didn’t know what I was doing. Now I can carve 3 windmill blades in about an hour.

    Many renewable energy packages include information on building wind turbines, but none of them come close to the overall instructions you will receive when you get The Poor Man’s Guide to
    Home Wind Turbines.

    Wind Power – Is This the Best Alternative Energy Source For You?

    By Kaye Michael Platinum Quality Author

    I think we can all agree that the current recession stinks. It’s been so hard on so many people. One good thing that seems to be coming out of it, though, is the fact that people are looking for ways to save money and cutting electric bills is one thing they are trying to do. Using wind power is a great place to start. Harnessing the power of the wind requires the use of a wind turbine. These are specially designed to capture the wind, convert it to electricity, and store it.

    Wind turbines don’t have to be the huge fan looking things you see in the field. As a matter of fact, they come in a lot of different sizes and shapes.

    More people are making their own wind turbines and placing them on their roof or in their yard as a way to generate some electricity for their own use and save some money on their electric bill. You can easily do this too. There are manuals available that will walk you through the process of building your own turbine, inexpensively and easily. Many times you can build one for less than a few hundred dollars....continue

    Home Wind Turbines – What You Need to Know

    By Brent Crouch

    Should you be considering a way to cut back the amount of electricity your home is using and the spending on your utility bills, turning to a residential wind turbine can help. However before you outfit yourself and your house with one you need to know a few things first.

    Residential wind turbines are much like those used commercially except they are on a smaller scale. These smaller units will be able to supply you with about 100 kilowatts of electricity and can then be put in place in your yard or around a business. These residential turbines are then able to cut back your reliance upon the standard electric company and for businesses provide a back up power source as well.…continue

    Home Built Wind Power Generators

    By Munya Chinongoza
    One hot summer
    afternoon, someone decided to test their craftsmen ship and take it upon themselves to make a homemade wind generator. It surprisingly took under $100 to make this wind generator. Although it does not work quite as well as a commercial bought generator and it would not hurt the design to have a few improvements.

    If time is not a problem and you have a really flexible schedule then this could be something for you to try as well. However if you do not have a lot of time and have some expendable money then you can go buy a commercial generator prices vary and will save you a lot of time. However if you want to save yourself a couple of hundred dollars then try this out.…continue
