DIY Wind Power Source For Homes: Grants?
August 25th, 2009
I live in Oklahoma and I am interesting in putting in a wind turbine at my house. I was told that wind turbines work best when there is open land and that at least 1 acre is good. That is not a problem for me as I live on 10 acres. The problem is that I'm thinking that this is too complex for me to accomplish. Has anyone built a wind power turbine for their home and was it hard? How much did it cost? I have found companies that sell wind turbines ranging from $7,000 to $30,000.
It is not complex at all. Wind power is one of the most environmentally friendly ways to generate electricity. You can build a wind turbine and install it in one weekend. It sounds like you live in an area that gets plenty of fast blowing wind.
I do not know of any grants but the prices are so cheap now that you really don't need a grant. You can build your own wind turbine for less than $300, or you can buy a 12-Volt 400-Watt Wind Generator for less than $500 on Amazon at Wind Turbine

This guy made a great example of a home made wind turbine. He makes it look really easy. I know if I tried this, it would seem much harder for sure. I might give it a go though as it really does seem easy.
