What is the importance of wind power?

Wind Turbine Power For Average Home?

• Hey, i have 2 kids and im a single parent. I have just finished building my own 4 bedroom home. I just got the first power bill and it was $600 for the first month. I am just wondering how much the $3000-$6000 wind turbines will cut down on my power bill per month. I live up on a hill on acerage and its quite windy. I want one of these instead of a solar panel because at night it will not work, as the wind turbine will. If you could put a link to a picture of the 3000-$6000 dollar wind turbine i would appreciate it. 1) How much will it cut down on my power bill if i have one turbine? 2) Please post a picture of it. Thanks guys. I really need it.

• Answer:

  I've been following alternate energy for several years, and re wind power, it seems as though you need to live in an area where the AVERAGE wind speed is approximately 13 mph in order to guarantee yourself uninterrupted power from the entire system you install. If you don't fall into this category, re-think the wind power solution, and consider others which will give you more return on your investment.
