Sorry, I cannot help you on this. Have you thought about posting your resume online? Have you thought about working from home? I’m not trying to pitch anything to you, but take a look at Wealthy Affiliate; it’s internet marketing:

It’s not as hard as people think. If you want, take time to read through a little bit and see if this interests you. Hope this helps. Good luck…

hi all just put up a 400w wind turbine it is 24v dc output i used 6mm house wire larger size than needed for the distance is there a difference between ac wire and dc wire thanks michael

Michael is wrong. Thicker wire = lower resistance.
Edit: 6mm is about the same as our 10 AWG.

Its for a class project, so please give me serious answers!
Where in the city, and what size windmills? They typically take 5-25 years to pay for themselves, depending on the politics of local energy.

I’m on the verge of buying a house (in the midwest) within a month and would like to cut back on utilities, so I’m trying to determine which would provide the most savings. I know a typical horizontal axis windmill would be more efficient, but unfortunately it’s out of the question (due to safety & space issues) in a residential area. Due to financial limits, I can’t get both (at least not yet). I will be using a gas stove since electric ones are such power hogs (in case that makes a difference).

Geothermal is always going to be better in the long run. Once you get pipe down a certain depth (usually 4-6 ft) the earth’s temperature is pretty consistent at 55 deg F. Wind energy is great! and generally a better bang for your buck IF you always have wind. The problem is that unless you live in Wyoming it’s not going to be consistent enough and the cost to build it is too much.

There are gov’t subsidies for both also. But a closed-loop geothermal system will be the cheapest.

But if you want to get really fancy you could do an open system: use water to heat the house and use the hot water in the shower, etc. This is much more expensive up front though. It would change your heating system completely and your water system.
