So maybe you’re thinking you want to generate your own electricity, and home wind

power has crossed your mind. After all, who really enjoys paying a utility bill? Small
wind energy is renewable, non-polluting, and, in the right circumstances, can save you
money.

But is home wind power a good choice for you? The answer may surprise you, because
living in a windy area is not necessarily the most important factor. In fact, many
properties are not a good fit for installing a wind turbine even if they have a lot of wind
(for reasons we’ll get into). On the other hand, if you want to go off-grid and produce
your own electricity, you almost certainly want to consider installing a home wind
turbine, even if your location is not notably windy.

Small wind turbines are used throughout the developed and developing world and are primarily used in
rural or remote settings in the domestic and international markets. Small wind turbines can be used to
power communities, businesses, schools, clinics, single households, farms and a variety of equipment.
Small wind turbines can be developed to meet the specifications suitable for the domestic and
international (developed and developing) markets.
