Your cottage,farm or even city home can be lighted with electricity generated by the wind.Even if you are far from a power line you need not be without power.Wind power is also one of the green forms of energy generation which does no harm to our environment.It is in fact probably the cleanest form of power generation which can be harnessed at reasonable cost.Solar energy is also very "clean" but solar panels are costly and have low power output.

Commercially made wind power plants are available but are quite costly.The simple solution to this problem is to build your own wind power generator.If you have room on your property you could build several units for the price of one commercial unit.If you generate more power than you need you can sell the excess to your electricity company in many areas now.

This wind power generator which can be built from plans is the lowest cost unit which you will find anywhere.We have checked out the others and they cost much more.This machine is built from new or used auto parts and a few odds and ends.It generates as much power as the more expensive alternatives.Construction of this generator is also much simpler.It is totally reliable and with routine servicing will operate for years.

Some people think that you need to have powerful winds blowing most of the time to generate much electric power.Nothing could be further from the truth.Even a gentle breeze will generate power which can be stored in your storage batteries.

Wind power was very popular in the 1930 to 1950 period.It was used by many people to generate power or to pump water from a well.People were very cost concious in those harder times.Nowadays,in these days of abundance, most people have lost this necessity to keep cost to a minimum and are quite happy to pay the power company every month.

A new age of wind power is now upon us when the necessity is to produce "green" power which does no harm to our environment.Many areas in the USA and elsewhere now have large scale wind power generation plants in operation and many more are scheduled to be built.

Small scale individual power plants such as this one are the wave of things to come.Many consumers are now installing them to generate at least part of the power they consume. If you live far from a power line of course your own power plant is the only way to go.

The average home workshopper can easily build a wind power generator using just simple tools and used auto parts.It will turn out as much power as an expensive commercial wind turbine.You can build several for the cost of one commercial model.If you generate more power than you use you can sell it to the power company in many areas.Now is the time to build your own wind power turbine genretrator.
