Where does Wind Power come from? Climbing Inside a Wind Turbine

www.firstwind.com for more videos from First Wind about wind energy. Find out what the inside of a wind turbine looks like and how it works as Liz from First Wind embarks on the 6 minute climb inside the tower to the top.

Homemade Wind Generator – For Real?

Whenever the entire planet will be wrestling with ways in order to deal with the actual serious energy situation, what’s the the very least we are able to do? We all have to start by protecting the energy we now have as well as producing much more electricity utilizing alternative energy options such as solar and wind power solutions. (more…)

Make Electricity From Wind

Wind turbines are often used to make electricity from wind.

With more and more fuels getting wasted and used, there are very few options remaining. Bio-fuel is one of the options and to add to it is the use of solar panels for driving motors and making electricity. The third option is harnessing the wind power. (more…)

Build Wind Generator Review

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.

Build Wind GeneratorNote – this is a review though, if you’re looking for the Earth4Energy website then click to the left.

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. You might also want to check out my blog about how to build solar panel.

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.

Wind Power Generators

Build a wind power generators for your need.

There really does not seem to be anyone out there that can dispute the fact that the energy sources we are currently using to run electric into our homes is quickly running out. Besides the fact that we are killing off a lot of our natural resources by using them all up, we are also putting out a lot of pollution into the air. (more…)

Sources of Electricity

Electricity and the sources of electricity is a hot topic today. We all understand that something must be done to increase the use of renewable energy solutions.

What is it like today in the United States? What are the main sources for power? (more…)

Erik

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.
