How To Make The Most Of Your Wind Power Station

Your personal wind power station can be the tool that liberates you from the tyranny of the electric utility

. Not that your utility is bad or is doing anything wrong, but they do hold a bit of a monopoly and that is an entity most of us would rather not be forced to buy from.

These are the things to do to get the most out of the wind power station you place at your home...

Get good wind data - It is very important to make sure that you get a clear picture of the way your wind tends to flow. Everyone's wind snapshot is different and that is because the obstacles close to the ground will tend to disturb the air flow and therefore create very different wind flow patterns at one location than another. For example, you can be at 80 feet on top of the tower and get 9 mph average wind and and then, go higher by 20 feet and get 11 mph. That move will dramatically increase your power output.

Study your home for places to put the wind power station - Most people put home wind turbine on top of their roots. That's because the roof seems to be a good compromise between accessibility and the amount of wind that you can have access to around a typical house. You will certainly get a lot more bang for your buck if you install your wind turbine high above the trees-like about 30 feet above the tops of them. If you go to the time and expense of installing your wind turbine high up on tower though, you're looking at probably doubling the cost of your project.

Check out the rebates and credits you might get - There is so much focus these days on making the world more renewable. That has resulted in many governmental agencies and manufacturers offering sizable credits and rebates for people opting to purchase a particular product, like a wind turbine or a solar collector.

Of course, if we end up finding a magic bullet that will replace fossil fuels and allow us to be ushered into an age of perpetual power production with very little likelihood of having material that will one day run out, then this will all be for naught. If that day comes we no longer truly need the renewable power systems that we are focusing on now. These devices will still enjoy popularity though because their source of energy is limitless.

In summary, your wind power station can be the key to cutting your electricity costs at home. Pay attention to the details and you can, with any luck, eventually even replace your dependence on your local utility.
