And the shrinking oil won't be that large problem it is rather small and 6 kW isn’t much, but if everybody does this, energy problems will be gone. And the shrinking oil won’t be that large problem

Will go to the site now, tell me about DIY style turbines when you have time. Am in the middle of the pyrenees, wondering how to get through all the permissions.happiness to you with thanks Great thanks, are you pleased with it, any draw backs…?

This is my first attempt at wind/power..thanks for any help..Mike/Brooklyn Probably foolishly I bid on a 12dvc generator/motor off ebay..any ideas on propeller designs (vertical or prop) that might be a good mate for it?

Smaller turbines are often nowhere near as efficient as the larger turbines. 'Dirty' Energy used to manufacture and install a large wind turbine is often paid back in terms of clean energy from the wind turbine in about 3 months. However with some of the smaller systems this may take many years and your environmental goodwill may not be as impressive as you first assumed. SHOP CAREFULLY! Something to bear in mind:
