Technological advances make it more and more feasible to install wind power generators for individual homes.

Wind power generators are machines that convert wind energy to electrical power. The only required fuel is wind and is therefore free, natural and unlimited.

The theory behind the wind power generator is simple. For windmills, the wind rotates the rotor blades to operate a pump or other mechanical systems.

Wind power is a clean, renewable source of energy which produces no carbon dioxide emissions or waste products.

Wind energy systems are way more eco-friendly than a conventional power plant, like a coal plant. The latter releases harmful global-warming gases (with greenhouse effects) that considerably pollute the atmosphere.

It is ironic, but wind power seems to be going full circle, from small-scale local generation through large-scale national projects and back to small scale again, with governments and multinationals having little say in the matter: a true democratisation of energy supply

A consistent wind, with average speeds of approximately 11 miles per hour is required to make a wind energy system feasible.

The wind power information that our ancestors knew has helped them create a wind power system that could work on irrigation and furnaces. By 7th century the very first wind mill was made in Afghanistan.

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.

During the lifetime of a wind turbine, the wind turbine can prevent 1.2 metric ton in air pollutants. This alone will help preserve the planet for future generations, especially our children.
