wind power generation
« on: January 10, 2010, 08:42:28 AM »
Anyone here worked on a wind turbine project or considered it?

I've just ordered a book for some insights into building my own or using
a commercially available unit. There is a good article here;
http://www.otherpower.com/windbasics1.html which exposes some of the myths and con-artist claims.

I watched this video with this unit on ebay and producing 2kw at 20mph wind speed. Their selling power back to
the grid. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360223029521

if i lived in an area that i could, i'd have a wind generator. i did have solar heating for my pool though. if i can ever talk the wife into moving out of the city, maybe out in hopkins or horrel hill area, i will put up a wind generator.
