More Periods of Wind Energy

Posted on Saturday 12 December 2009

If you built a wind power system in any other period in history you would need to invest a lot of time and money. Even a decade ago this wasn’t as possible. But there are now many great sources to get low cast or no cost parts for your wind power system. Forget about welding a tower together. As this will make the entire task much easier for you and you’ll know exactly what to do and what you’ll need. Some of the manuals out there are complete garbage however so be careful. You’ll want a manual thats attractively illustrated and goes through a step-by-step what to do process. Some of the parts needed for a homemade wind power generatorDC motor used to power your wind generator No special tools are needed just a jigsaw and your everyday wrenches A fairly good size garage or shed PVC pipe for the blades A pole that is at least 30 feet high (old TV antenna works best) Good used batteries (a good guide will show you where to get these for free)Once you are finished putting together your wind power generator, and your have it installed, according to the guide it will generate enough power to power a TV, DVD player, computer and lights for a small shop. The bigger the blades, the more energy a turbine can take out of the air. It is just harder to make because the blades need to be balanced or the turbine may break when spinning quickly. Building your own wind turbine is actually very simple.
