1. Is a Home WindTurbine Right forYou?
Home wind turbines are a smaller version of the large turbines you see on the
side of the highway generating clean electrical energy from the wind’s kinetic
energy. While commercial wind farms use machines whose blades can create
a diameter of 130 feet—about as long as a football field—a home system is
much more condensed.

If your area is windy enough enough, home wind turbines can help lower
electricity bills by as much as 50-90% and provide an uninterrupted power
source through extended utility outages—all with zero emissions and
pollution.1
Not only are they one of the most cost-effective home-based
renewable energy systems, home turbines can be used for other applications

2. such as pumping water for irrigation, which can be helpful in farms or
ranches.
What Is a Home Wind Turbine?
A wind turbine has a blade, a pole, and a generator. The blade works a bit
like an airplane wing: as blowing air passes by both sides of the blade, its
unique shape causes the wind pressure to become uneven, making the blade
spin. This is where technology surpasses the traditional windmill.
A weather vane on the top connects to a computer to keep the machine
positioned to run as efficiently as possible. The blades only turn about 18
revolutions per minute—not fast enough to generate electricity on its own—
so they are attached to a rotor shaft and a series of gears that help increase the
rotation to about 1,800 revolutions per minute.
Since the higher up you go, the windier it is as a general rule of thumb, so
larger turbines can pack a hefty punch when it comes to energy generation.
Smaller properties that only need to power residential homes or small
businesses may benefit from a small wind turbine, especially in rural areas
that are not already connected to an energy grid (though home wind systems
can also connect to an existing electric grid through your power provider).
Is a Home Wind Turbine Right for Me?
Home wind turbines require a specific kind of planning and maintenance to
be successful and a significant upfront investment. Home wind turbines
should be installed by a qualified professional, and are not a DIY job. Most
importantly, you’ll need to find out if small wind electric systems are even
allowed in your area.
Potential buyers should estimate their site’s wind resource and research
potential neighborhood zoning issues. You'll want to consider monthly
electrical usage, the rate you pay for electricity, and the amount of energy the
wind turbine is estimated to generate.

3. It's also a good idea to compare the installation of home wind generation with
other clean energy options, like rooftop solar and efficiency upgrades, to
make sure you're getting the best value for your investment.
Check Out Your Property
Start by contacting your local building inspector, your board of supervisors,
or your planning board—they’ll be able to give you information on
requirements and whether or not you’ll need a building permit. If you have
neighbors or a homeowners association, they may be concerned about the
noise level or aesthetics of a wind turbine, as well, so be prepared with
objective data in order to address these issues.
Information like height limits (a majority of zoning ordinances have a 35-foot
height limit for structures) will come in handy while shopping around for
home turbines. According to the United States Energy Department, most
residential turbines have a sound level that is just slightly above ambient
wind noise, and “while the sound of the wind turbine may be picked out of
surrounding noise if a conscious effort is made to hear it, a residential-sized
wind turbine is not a significant source of noise under most wind conditions.”
Estimate Your Wind Resources
Local terrain influences wind levels more than most of us realize. Just
because it feels windy in one spot doesn’t mean an area a few miles away is
just as blustery. A great place to start your research is a wind resource map,
available on the U.S. Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy
website and organized by state. You can also consult wind speed data from a
nearby airport or see if there is a local small wind system with annual output
and wind speed data available.
For the most accurate measurement, direct monitoring by a professional wind
resource system at your site can take readings at the specific elevation on the
top of the tower where the wind turbine would be installed. These are pricey,
however, and may cost between $600 and $1,200.

4. Do the Math
Find out if a home wind energy system is economically viable by taking a
look at your current electrical costs and compare them to the overall cost of
things like installation, output, savings, and your return on investment. Use
the Department of Energy’s small wind consumer guides to help estimate the
costs of purchasing the machine, how much you stand to save by making the
switch, and how long it will take to regain your capital investment. A
professional home turbine installer should be able to help estimate your costs
as well.
The costs to install a free-standing home wind turbine vary depending on the
location, output, and size of the machine. In the San Francisco area, for
example, a small wind system can cost anywhere between $5,000 and
$40,000 depending on the kW size.2
A standard single-family home in the
region uses just over 5,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per year, which
would require a turbine in the 1-5 kilowatt range.
