Wind Turbine Systems: 3 Initial Steps For Your Home

When you are first looking into the possibility of getting wind turbine systems for your house

, the whole process can seem a bit foreign to you and a bit overwhelming. After all, you are having to understand a number of elements of weather that you never had to deal with before and probably seemed irrelevant. That however, is what separates a renewable energy project from almost any other project you will attempt around your house.To get off on the right foot, you just need to know the things people have done before to achieve success.

These are the 3 first steps with wind turbine systems that will insure you get it right the first time

Study the breeze - Your breeze at home has a distinct character that needs to be discovered and its nuances, or frequency distributions documented in order to get the most power out of it. On top of that, not only your property in general, but most every area you will consider for placement of your wind turbine kit will have its own character or, microclimate. That means that each spot will carry its own wind patterns throughout the day, month, and year. Also, the average wind that you get on your roof will be different than what you experience closer to the ground. The reason there is so much difference is the ground friction that is present. The buildings and trees surrounding your house offer up obstacles that change the flow and speed of the wind at these various points.

Look to the rules and regulations - To make sure you stay out of hot water with local officials, it is wise to check out any local rules regarding permitting. One way to check it out and get the straight story is to just get a copy of a permit form from your city. If there is no special mention of wind turbines, then you are probably ok. But, the more definitive thing to do is to call the permitting office to see if if what you are doing is allowed.

Carefully plot out your options - Most everyone could install their wind turbine systems at multiple points and still extract a good bit of power from their air. Except for inner-city dwellers who only have their roofs as a platform for a wind turbine, most people can install them also on towers above the trees. In any case, it is wise to check out the wind conditions at least at a few locations and measure the wind there for 6-12 months.

In the final analysis, wind turbine systems for the home are just the right fit for many people but without the initial knowledge of the opportunities your house offers, there is just no way to get the project right. Start with these key areas of exploration and let the answers you find drive you to the perfect wind turbine for your home.
