    wind power creates electricity, and electricity can power anything and everything that are required in any of the three types of buildings and more.

    Today there are many products out there for home and commercial use that are small and have a low. Prices start at about $5000 for a unit that will power an average home. These units are vertical turbines and have even been spotlighted on the show ‘Living with Ed’. They are not your typical windmills but rather look like a squirrel cage turned on its edge sitting on top of a pole.

    I hope to buy one next year.

Hi, I’m Erik Astrand and the man behind this site.

My story?
I am about to be 50 and all my life I have been interested in technical things. Not sure if the special interest for the wind, and how to use the wind, started when I as a 5 year old boy and got my first sail dinghy.

Anyway, wind power and to build my own wind generator was a dream for several years. I studied many websites and also bought many courses before I finally built my own windmill. This site is about that journey and you will also find some more general articles about wind power.

Enjoy! and check out the about me page to read more.
