A Vertical Wind Turbine can be the best investment those days, not only for producing free electricity and saving lots of money but also for helping the environment. Yet Wind Turbines are quite expensive and not many of us are so fortunate and able to make such a wise investment. Should this stop you from trying to use a clean, sustainable form of energy like wind energy?I think not. In my

Wind energy, being one of the fastest growing form of clean and renewable energy enjoy a large popularity not only amongst environmentalist. The trend evolved in the latest decade into a new industry and today we all are familiar with the electricity producing huge wind farms.But there will always be naysayers, and to be faithful to the truth we should look at both sides of the coin:in order to

Wind turbines come in many sizes and configurations. But no matter if they are big or small, horizontal-axis or vertical-axis, every wind turbine function on the same principle: extracts energy from wind, transfers this harvested energy into a spinning shaft which turns an alternator or generator to produce electricity.So the basic components of a wind turbine are:Blades or rotor, which converts

All things considered, i would say that building your own WindTurbine is a well worthy project. In my opinion it is fun, interesting and depending on how technically skilled you are, can save you some money on electricity bills. Most people would start their first DIY green energy adventure with a solar panel, but wind turbines are cheaper and easier to build.First thing you have to consider is,

Wind turbines harness the power of the wind and use it to generate electricity. One of the greatest advantages of wind energy is that it can be used both on a large and small scale. Small wind energy systems known as domestic wind turbines or "microwind" turbines are ideal for householders to produce electricity. Wind turbines use large blades to collect the wind’s kinetic energy. When the wind

The increasing pressure of global warming combined with the constant rising price of fossil fuels forces us to come up with new ways to produce energy.Using the power of wind is not new for us; there is evidence that wind energy was used to propel boats along the Nile as early as 5000BC. But only recently we started to use the wind power to create electricity.Wind energy is actually based on
