DIY Wind Generator

With a regularly windy site, a wind generator can be an inexpensive source of electricity, especially compared to photovoltaics (PV). Commercial wind generators can be pricey, initially, as are the towers and installation. This can be done Do-It-Yourself (DIY), with proper education and experience. My friends at Otherpower.com build their own wind machines, and do their own installation. Follow along

as they construct a 15′, 1500 watt unit.

I think it’s a great idea to build your own wind generator given the relatively high cost of commercial units and the long time it may take to recoup your investment.
