Wind Energy & Skystream 3.7 Residential Wind Turbines

The energy of the future is clean, renewable energy. With new technologies and government incentives making renewable forms of energy more affordable, the future is now. As the growing global economy competes for limited natural resources to produce conventional forms of energy, our reliance as a nation on home grown, renewable forms of energy (e.g. Wind - Skystream 3.7 turbines and Solar - photovoltaic) will become more and more necessary.

It may be years or even decades before renewable energy replaces conventional energy and becomes our primary source for powering our economy. But as individuals we can all play a small part in lessening our dependence on unreliable foreign sources of energy whose national prerogatives sometimes conflict with our own.

Benefits of Generating Your Own Electricity

Possessing the ability to generate all or a portion of your electricity provides the following benefits:

• It ensures that rising utility costs have less impact on household budgets.
• It conserves vital natural resources.
• It contributes to an increase in regional generating capacity without a proportionate increase in the energy capacity of regional electrical transmission and distribution systems since the electricity is used where it is produced.
• It lessens our dependence on foreign energy sources for a more secure America.

Wind Energy

The human race has relied upon wind energy for thousands of years. Wind energy has been used to navigate the globe, separate chaff from wheat, and pump water, among other useful purposes. But only within the last century has harnessing the mechanical energy in wind and converting it to electrical energy been considered. With the advent of modern day micro-electronics and sophisticated inverters that match utility voltage and frequency, the ability of everyday homeowners with the appropriate site and adequate wind resource to economically self generate electrical power is now a reality.
