Wind Power Information

A summary of 42 polls conducted between 1990 and 2002 shows an average of 77% in favor and just 9% against wind power.

Wind power lends itself well to domestic applications, as wind turbines can be virtually any size. They can be fitted to rooftops (though these are less efficient) or smaller versions can be placed in back gardens.

The truth of the matter is that residential wind power can be hooked directly to any home with out the need to switch any of your current wiring or appliances.

Using wind power holds out many added advantages, including significant reduction in electric charges, stopping any unnecessary wastage of power, and helping to sustain the environmental balance by ensuring zero pollution of the atmosphere.

Wind power is the world’s fastest growing energy source, averaging a 30% growth per year.

The unique problem of people not desiring to look up at or listen to wind power turbines all day every day has become a bit of an issue. Where the issue is likely to be decided is in more urban areas where the use of wind turbines is just commencing to creep in.

As novel as the wind power technology appears to be, it has actually been around for 5,500 years. Men started using it to make their farm lands easier to manage. It was also used in sail boats and later to propel ships.

Wind power plant costs can be slashed by large amounts, if proper financial management is done for them.

Residential wind power systems are closer than some might think to becoming a widespread reality. Already many homeowners all over the world are using wind generators to produce power.

You may have seen large three-bladed wind turbines around the countryside, clustered together in what are known as wind farms.
