Wind Power Cost

Wind power cost is naturally all depending on the size of the project. Wind farms and gigantic windmills are huge investments and that is not what we are talking about here. What is the cost then for a small domestic wind generation system?

This also depends on many different factors. Do you have to buy the complete system ready built or do you have the ability to build or assemble a do it yourself kit.

There are diy kits that claim that you can get wind power from a small windmill for $150. In this case you buy most of the parts from your locale hardware store. You build the wind turbine yourself and could be producing free green energy in a few hours. This isn’t the kind of wind generator that produces large amount of electricity but in these days every watt counts.

It's very calm over here, why not leave a comment?

Who am I ?

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.
