I own a typical house. Nothing great. Nothing to brag about. I grew up in this neighborhood and love this place dearly. For years, I've paid my utility bills without public complaint. Suddenly, in recent years, things have changed! You know what it is. The fuel prices. Higher electricity bills.

A high school teacher and I do not have much money. We lived on a tight budget. Play in the high cost of energy in a newspaper is one thing, but finding the money that is drained from months my pocket after month, is another matter. It really hurts. I had to find ways to save money any way he could. Could not stop driving, thereby saving on gasoline is out of question. But I read somewhere that you can reduce their electricity bills 50% to 90% by using energy solar and wind. At that time, I thought it was too complicated a professor of history without a technical background to handle. But with a good manual, creating your own wind power system is one part cake. A good step by step illustrated manual will show you exactly how to choose the components, where to buy your coins, how to put together and how to maintain your newly mounted wind turbine.

Incidentally, let's clarify that wind turbines and wind generator are the same.

The creation of a wind turbine large enough to feed a medium sized house will cost between $ 6,000 – $ 25,000. Many people become discouraged when realize how much money they have to explain to implement a windmill. But you should keep in mind that the relatively high initial cost in the end will be offset by the huge amount of money saved in the long run, when the cost of producing their own power is zero. A windmill that reduce their electricity bills by 50% -90% on average and generally pay for themselves after 8-15 years.

These are things to consider before creating a windmill.

 • The ideal place to build a windmill would be the average wind speed of 11 mph or more, but good results have also on sites with a slightly lower speed mean wind.

 • The area must have a minimum area of one hectare. It is advisable to establish a wind turbine in a area smaller than the blades of wind turbines will not be able to capture enough energy from wind to the windmill to work.

 • How to generate output that its own interests.

 • Components robust. You do not want your new assembly plant to be damaged by strong winds in the next two weeks can do?

Before a manual, sourcing and installation of a windmill, you need to know if the site you want to set a mill the wind is really in a windy area, otherwise the whole effort is in vain. Remember that the best results at 11 MPH (5.5 m / s) or more. But wind turbines can produce decent results in all areas that wind gusts of about 8 km / h (3.5 m / s).

If you are not sure of the wind speed in your area, see the wind maps to find the average wind speed of their position. It will be worth the effort to build a wind turbine in a region with average wind speeds of less than 6 miles per hour. In this case, you should consider energy solar.

Let's take a look at the 3 main components:

Rotor blades: Rotor blades convert wind energy into kinetic energy.

– Axis: The Return of the rotor blades also rotate the shaft that transfers the mechanical energy in the generator.

Generator: The generator produces electricity by electromagnetic induction when the magnets rotating around a conductor.
