small wind electric systems
Small wind electric systems are one of the most cost-effective, home-based
renewable energy systems. These systems are also nonpolluting.
If a small wind electric system is right for you, it can do the following:
- Lower your electricity bills by 50–90%
- Help you avoid the high costs of having utility power lines extended
to a remote location
- Help uninterruptible power supplies ride through extended utility
outages.
Small wind electric systems can also be used for a variety of other applications,
including water pumping on farms and ranches.
