Everything But The Weed

I already use solar electricity for my hot water system, which I had installed by a firm of experts and was comparatively expensive.  For some unknown reason I was sure that wind power would be more cost-effective, how wrong I was.  

After getting a few quotations from area contractors, which only went to prove that I couldn’t afford a ready built wind generator, I was on the edge of thinking that I would have to forget the entire concept and would have to tolerate the constantly rising power charges for the obvious future.  

Before giving up altogether I chose to look once more on the internet for any other chances and I discovered a few sites advertising guides showing you how to build a wind generator at very little cost.  Digging further, I found a site that was offering wind generator plans which led you thru the entire process with step-by-step instructions and videos so that you can see that you’re doing the job right.  

After downloading the guide from the Green Power simple website I was able to get on with the project.  Included in the guide was everything I wished to know on the way to build a wind generator of my very own, from the easy way to figure out the size of the wind turbine blades that I might need, whereabouts to find the materials, check out the wind speeds at my location, and even where to go to discover about central authority repayments that are available for converting to wind power.  

What stunned me most about the diy wind power project was how cheap it seemed to be, I spent $100’s and not the $1000’s it might have cost me if I had gone for a readymade installation.  

If, like me, you are looking for techniques to reduce your power costs, why don’t you look at carrying out a diy project and build a wind generator for yourself.  It’s a way to save cash and help the environment at the same time.
