Residential Wind Power is really going from strength to strength over the last few years. Home wind power kits are making wind power within reach of the average home owner….this can only be an exciting time for renewable energy.

Thanks for your comment Mr Sustainable. I agree totally – both solar and wind energy have their places in the renewable energy spectrum.

In some low wind areas the use of a wind turbine as a source of renewable energy would provide disappointing results and solar would be a better option. On the other hand wet and dark places with limited sun would be better served with a wind turbine.

The most important thing for solar and wind advocates to remember is that we need each other! Neither solution works perfectly in every situation. The other important point is that our atmosphere is in constant motion. A few hundred feet above the surface, the wind blows constantly. The trick is to harness it safely.
