Hi! A small wind turbine for your house is a great investment and if you do it right you will laugh at your energy bill...
NewsHello,
does anyone have a design of wind turbine for household. how much kW can be obtained, the cost etc…. if there is a technical sheet it is welcome. if anyone has designed a household with a wind turbine that can send electricity to grid.
thanks
kevin

My power requirment is 2 KV.
For a small 12volt system, your best bet is any of the major marine equipemtn suppliers like west marine, boatUS or defender. 2KV is not a power requirements, but a voltage specification. I think you mean 2KW or 2 kilowatts… For a 2KW reliable output, you need maybe a 20KW peak system ….. the wind doesn't blow most of the time. That's a pretty big wind system for a homeowner -you're talking about large diameter systems, maybe 20' diameter and a very substantial mounting, etc. Figure about $150,000. for a realistic system. There will also be substantial hassles getting zoning approval and a building permit for a large system. Forget about a do-it-yourself setup using cheap automotive parts and home made propellers.. we're talking concrete footings and substantial construction expenses. Unless you live in Cape Hataras, the likelihood is that the system will never pay for itself, as large wind generators need substantial, regular maintenance. Things like bearings and control electronics have finite lifetimes and cannot be skimped on. For realistic power generation, photovoltaic panels make more sense, and only with a substantial government subsidy. For off-the-grid power generation, nothing beats a water-cooled diesel generator for reliability and cost per kilowatt…. even at $4 a gallon diesel.
I recently built four of these and put them at the far end of my hazelnut field. When I was looking at buying already built ones the price ranged from $7,000 to $10,000 which set me back until I looked into it further. I ended up settling on the guide from http://www.ebooksreviewed.info/earth4energy and am a satisfied customer so I will recommend it to you. Total cost for each wind turbine was only a couple hundred, good easy to follow instructions (even for myself, the technically handicapped) and it had places to buy all the parts for as cheap as possible. Go with these guys, you wont be disappointed.
i am making a project…m in class 9th…plz help me as fast as u can …..

A more complex turbine. Instructions are clear and in pictures here.
You may need the help of an adult or someone good at carpentry.
This will take some time and patience but produces an up-right model.

i am doing a project for my science class and i need to know where they are used the most. im not talking about one just powering a house but like a wind farm. if you understand that please just say the names of the states and where(ex. california, silicon valley). thanks for the help
for the first person who answered wat state is that in?
They are used a lot in the north, west and southwest, here is a wind map of the US where they would be most efficient.
