Is Wind Energy Right for You?
My husband and I are currently in the process of designing the layout and structure for our new home. We know that the most important thing of all is that everything, EVERYTHING has got to be green. Hubby being the fairly simple guy, just give me a workshop and a garage big enough for my cars, I’m the more complex one. (Typically so with Virgos right?) I want the entire property to be completely off the grid. I want my family to be in a position to not have to depend on anyone but God and ourselves to sustain life from this point forward. They keep telling me to dream bigger…
Determining if wind energy is right for you, and deciding if you want to invest in this form of renewable energy is really about 2 variables- wind speed and how large your wind generator is, which is all about blade diameter (or swept area, which we will explain in a minute). Is wind energy right for you- build a wind generatorThe first question you need to ask yourself is, “Does the wind blow often enough to be noticeable or even to the point of being irritating on a regular basis?” This may sound like a simple question to answer, but it may take you some time to figure out.
