DIY Wind Turbine- The Cost of Wind Energy : Eco Articles

You may know that I am always on the
watch for good ideas on
Alternative Energy Sources. Now, I
come across a very
excellent information that talks over Eco Energy Sources from a new
angle. Today’s new post is titled DIY Wind Turbine- The Cost of Wind Energy .

Article by John O Toole

Wind energy is presented as an alternate to harmful fossil fuels, and it is gaining importance with time.And now many households are turning to wind and sun to reduce their energy costs with wind power and solar energy.

DIY wind turbines are used to utilize the energy of the wind and a lot of work has been done to make them more affordable. However, buying a wind energy system still requires a large investment, but there is a way in which you can cut costs significantly.

This technique to cut costs involves making your own wind energy turbine. Wind turbines are available in large and small sizes. Building your own turbine means that you will be able to control costs to a certain extent.

Wind energy systems have different components like a generator, rotating shaft, gearbox, mounting tower, etc. An understanding of how to put together the whole system is necessary for building your own turbine wind generator but this type of information is freely available online now.

Diy wind turbine manuals can help you with the entire process. These manuals contain instructions and diagrams that explain things in a step by step manner so that you do everything correctly. Many do it yourself guides and manuals are available online and the basic components can be purchased at most hardware stores.

Building your own turbine is a very practical way of providing electrical energy for your house. Small wind energy turbines can be used to power household appliances and lighting.

You have the choice to either choose a horizontal-axis wind turbine or a vertical-axis. In horizontal-axis turbines the blades are facing the wind direction, while in vertical they can be in different directions. Horizontal-axis wind turbines are the most commonly used.

The vertical-axis turbines are more suitable in places where wind direction can vary frequently.

You can setup your own wind energy system for as low as 0. A Diy wind turbine is economical and clean and will payback the initial investment in about 3 years.

Clearly there is a huge benefit to the environment also and you can play your part in reducing environmental pollution.
