Hey Erik here,

What you are reading now is my uncensored, sort of, review of what I really thought about Earth4Energy and how I learned to build wind generator.

Note – this is a review though, if you’re looking for the Earth4Energy website then click here.

Why am I writing this? Well, there are several reasons. I love the nature and wildlife. If my few words here could help you to start your own wind power system, then that could be a tiny help in saving the environment. Another point when getting older, is thoughts about what we leave to our children. Maybe it’s too late already but I think it’s worth trying.

Ok, first of all I have to admit that I am not a mechanic. Yes, as I am about to reach my 50s I have done some easier repairs at cars and my sons scooters and so on. But one thing I certainly hadn’t done before this project was any electrical jobs at all. All my life I had stayed away from those kind of tasks as I didn’t have any clue about how to fix them. This was actually something that held me back starting a wind energy project for some time.

I did start a couple of other wind projects earlier and they were not successful. They failed because I didn’t know how to do and didn’t find the answers in the instructions that I had.

The second time I tried, I only used sites and information that I found on the Internet. There are hundreds of pages about how to build wind generator but I found that I had really difficult to choose which one I should trust. As I had tried before I was really skeptical.

To make a long story short – I worked with this project for about two months until I understood that I had to find better instructions.

Now I found the Earth4Energy site.

This seemed to be a much more comprehensive course than I had seen before and yes, it was.

It takes you by the hand, and shows you step by step one of the easiest and most affordable methods to build your own wind generator.

The step by step guide is really easy to follow. That is certainly the part that I like most. I found that when I followed these steps I actually built the generator that I had dreamed about for years.

Videos that helped me to build wind generator

Something that also helped me a lot was the videos. Things that I had read about before and didn’t understand made sense now when I looked at the videos.

The site claims that you can build a wind mill for under $200. I am not quite sure about that. I had some parts from earlier tryouts that I could use in my system making it hard to decide. Anyway, to me it seems difficult to build something that cheap. I might be wrong.

In conclusion I am glad that I found the Earth4Energy site. The fact is that I finally built my wind mill with this guide. This site has also opened my eyes to solar power as the guide actually consists of how to build both wind and solar generating systems.

I also save money every month and I know that I have done something really good for the environment.

Are two wind turbines better than one big one?

Should I have lots or just one big one in the garden?

Construction is underway on Brown County’s first industrial wind farm.

hey, it’s me again asking for help
i need this for my global perspective homework.
oh yes, i need an answer to this question as well: Can WAVE power be mass produced?

“VAWT” “Wind Turbine” Feel “free” to use any of these “concepts” in your “windmill” designs. The wing or plate that swings on a vertical rod has been around forever and the rest are just “conceptual designs” that I came up with. An engineer proficient using AVIs stress analysis application could determine structural integrity issues using these drawings. Who knows; maybe someone will perfect this “design concept” and build them to the same height as the large HAWTs. I (think) “Vertical Axis Wind Turbines” have the leverage potential to produce more power at lower wind speeds. I am amazed by the large HAWTs and many of the modern VAWTs but I hope that engineers, innovators and last but not least, financial risk takers will continue to find ways to lower the required wind speed. Constructive comments are welcomed. If you do not have any, Yes We Can! works for me. Thanks for viewing.

im doing a project on wind power and i was wondering where are the best places in the USA that can produce enough wind to make wind turbines? and where are the wind turbines currently, i cant seem to find a web sight that has this information.

1. Is wind power effective as opposed to other resources?
2. How sustainable are wind farms compared to other forms of resources?
3.How could the effects of wildlife be avoided? (bird strike…etc)

ps: pleaz include what website you got the answer from, and some facts or notes.
eg: over 19 percent of that energy is needed to power only one house in less windy areas… etc etc etc…

THANX LOTS LOTS LOTS AND LOTS!~

Those windmills spinning away in the hills and mountain passes provide clean and renewable energy to our power grids. Lawrence Livermore National Lab’s Julie Lundquist explains how wind turbines convert the forces of the atmosphere into electricity for our homes, businesses, and even cars. Explore how much power could be collected from the wind, how that amount compares to our demands, and how weather forecasts help wind turbines provide even more clean, renewable, and reliable energy.
