STEP 1: Home Wind Turbine 101, Electricity Used and Cost

Saturday, October 18th, 2008

STEP 1: Electricity Used and Cost

This is the first in a series of quick and brief (DIY) Do It Yourself articles from WindEnergy7.com.  It is best if you read this series in order because they are written to benefit readers in that way. Our goal is to help educate customers not just sell products.  Many customers actually become dealers, because they have learned so much when they are done. The first step in installing a home wind turbine is to determine how much electricity you use in your home or business. Your electrical energy is measured and sold in kilowatt-hours (KWH), so you need to find out how many kilowatt-hours (KWH) you use per month.

On your home, you can read your utility meter, but it’s easier to simply reference your utility bill.  The utility bill usually displays a summary of the past year’s electrical usage, maybe an average. If you’re planning new construction, you’ll need to estimate your electrical use. Reviewing your utility bills from your current home or another existing home with a similar range of appliances. The best you can do on new construction is only be a guess, your actual usage may vary considerably. 

How Much Electricity: Your main goal for the electrical needs analysis is to come up with the number of KWH per year that you want your wind system to generate. Without this analysis, you’re more likely to end up being unhappy with your investment in wind power. 

What Does it Cost: Your second goal is to figure out exactly what this electricity kilowatt-hours (KWH) is costing you. That is critical in doing the return on investment (ROI) of a system. Our goal at WindEnergy7.com is to help people econolmically, to lower your energy costs.  So, you will notice this as a big difference in our company and others, we focus heavily on return on investment (ROI). We want to make sure that any money you spend on green energy is a good investment first.  It’s great that the environment and planet are saved too, but these systems are usually a great investment in your personal economic future.

Without knowing your electricity use and costs, you cannot begin to communicate with your WindEnergy7.com dealer about a system.  You cannot decide on what would be a good system for you or what it may cost.  Most importantly, you cannot connect the dots, financially, to see the savings and payback of your home wind turbine.  So, this is our first step of a personal energy systems design.  Our goal in these articles is education, to put buyers in a situation to actually help themselves.  Our site and products at WindEnergy7.com is designed to be a true (DIY) Do It Yourself resource.

Homework: Find out what your electrical use is in kwH, Find out what you cost per kwH is.

Residential Home Wind Turbine Cost

Friday, October 10th, 2008

> sam, do you ever think prices will come down on this stuff. i would
 > like to go solar and wind but the prices are steep.

Hello,

Sure, prices will come down. But these home wind/solar systems pay for themselves in 5 to 10 years, depending on wind/solar resources and your systems design. That’s a system that keeps making power for more than 30 years of life. That makes it a very, very sound investment and a good deal too. One of my goals it to lower costs through volume, but quality and value is first. These systems are the best price/performance ever made and easily pay for themselves, right now.

home turbine home wind turbine home turbines turbines for home turbines for homes turbines homes wind turbines for homes home made turbine turbines for the home wind turbine for home turbine for home home built turbine home built turbines home turbine power home made turbines turbines home use wind turbines home use home gas turbine home wind turbine generators turbine

Anyone doesn’t think so should spend more time doing math and comparing it to any other investment.  Of course it’s…

– Only good for people who use electricity.
– Only good for people who pay for electricity every month.
– Only good for people who own a home, acreage, or business.

That includes many, many prospective customers. Name me one, just one thing, that you could potentially sell those people that could give them 20 years of free electricity AND pay for itself. It’s at worst a 10 year return on investment (ROI), runs another 20 years, that’s 300% on the money invested. That’s if electricity costs never even go up, then it’s even better. AEP Ohio just announced 15% increase for each of next three years. Utility insiders and employees are reporting a coming run-up like we just had with oil.

How Sure An Investment Is This Home Wind Turbine?
It’s a s sure as the wind will blow, the utility company will send you a bill, and you will need electricity for your house.

So, eep an eye on my blog. I am beginning a series of articles to start educating my dealer and customer network. The articles start with first in series is, my favorite subject.  I start with The economics of price/cost and return on investment (ROI).

I think that most people really don’t see clearly how good this is as a personal and family economic investment. I see very clearly as I sit here all day doing these analysis of system ROI. It’s amazing. I wish I was rich. If I were, I would plow every single dime into wind generation < AT CURRENT COSTS >. No doubt.

The first article in the educational series should post tonight, maybe tomorrow at my blog. I’m going to systemtically lay out how to do wind system ROI FIRST. Then how to judge correct systems size/performance for a situation. Then start educating all about the systems, components, issues, technology. Some of that will be on the secured part of my site, for the dealers only. But allot of it will be for anyone, customers and whoever is interested.

Home Wind Turbine Kit

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

Building your home wind turbine is pretty simple and allot of fun. The kits from WindEnergy7.com are made to be quick and easy with assembly taking about an hour. You can look at the finished home wind turbine kits here. Of course the turbine is only part of a real home energy system like you see in the video below. That’s why people buy systems from WindEnergy7 LLC, because we ONLY SELL COMPLETE SYSTEMS. We don’t sell parts and pieces, a home wind turbine kit from us is a complete system of matched components, engineered to work as planned. We back you up with technical support, training, and even help you become a Wind/Solar Dealer for your area if you like. See Movie Below, Home Wind Turbine Kit

Since the new law was passed for the 30% IRS tax credit, customers get 30% of their system paid for by the IRS. All our system are qualified for full 30% credit. We have been fielding calls and emails from all over the country.  This past year, we installed home wind/solar kits from Hawaii to New Jersey, Canada, and Europe. A home wind turbine kit is such a good investment.  You can read about the new home wind turbine tax incentives here.

We are starting a network of dealers and distributors right now and many people are getting in on this now, involvement is open to all interested.  I am however not talking dealershp details to anyone who isn’t a customer first.  If you buy a system, you can become a dealer with no further investment.  There’s a very simple agreement and structure, all win/win.  Based on geographic areas you can stake a claim now.

home turbine home wind turbine home turbines turbines for home turbines for homes turbines homes wind turbines for homes home made turbine turbines for the home wind turbine for home turbine for home home built turbine home built turbines home turbine power home made turbines turbines home use wind turbines home use home gas turbine home wind turbine generators turbine

On a higher level of dealer involvement, WindEnergy7.com is looking to create ONLY A FEW distributor level dealers.  Again, first step is to buy and install a system, now you really in a position to show and help others do same. That’s about all the detail we can offer without being in the dealer group and under the NDA (non disclosure agreement).

Have a look at these windmaps at the link above and see can you pinpoint what number your area is in.  2 is OK and anything over 2 is very good. Let’s double check your wind resources are good. Check Your Wind Map Here

The hybrid rooftop wind turbine system in the video above is is around $16,000 for Grid-Tie system with battery back-up.  Single turbine systems start at around $6000.  That has every component with it (except batteries) which you buy locally, is a matched kit of components.  It’s really a handyman level install, many folks put it in themselves and many have an electrician finish it up for safety.  Pay by credit card secured, takes WindEnergy7.com about 3 weeks to pack and ship, the home wind turbine kits go out UPS Ground with Free Shipping.

Our systems come with the whole Wind Turbine, Blades, Cone, Tail, Roofmount Kit, Pole, Charge Controllers, Solar Panels, Hardware, Inverter etc.  The whole Kit of matched components is a complete home energy system.  Did you see the blog post about the 30% federal tax break law, as soon as word got out on that new tax incentive just passed, This sites traffic went up dramatically in one day and sales are brisk ever since.

Small Wind Turbine Farm, Ranch

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

.
.
My main goals for Small Wind Turbines are de-centralization of electrical power. I want to help empower INDIVIDUALS to use Small Wind Turbines to produce their own power as a personal economic benefit. I have seen the longest running wind farm in Texas and how the local school district is STILL poor and the local economy got only a couple of jobs from it. In the mean time the energy company has reported 300 million dollars of income.farm ranch wind turbine energy project

On Earth Day 2010, I won a Green Design Contest with my patent pending system, RoofMill™. RoofMill™ small wind turbine is the popular choice for homes and businesses in the United States due to outstanding reliability, efficiency, and ease of deployment. In an urban environment, the RoofMill™ is out of the way and leverages it’s easy installation as a way to get through permitting. Our RoofMill is not a construction project, requires NO CONCRETE, walls, trenches, cranes, thus is the popular choice for urban or residential wind and solar installation. Our patented design makes it possible to deploy wind power in an easy effective way for anyone.

I am in projects of distribution and marketing, selling and manufacturing small grid-tie turbines, kits and systems from 5kw to 100kw but biggest demand is 10 and 20kw where a system can actually take a homeowner or farm to energy independance.

Residences, farms, rural individuals, school districts, co-ops, county governments, civic organizations, all can actually put up their own small wind turbines and produce electricty to the grid. This works on any scale, not just for giant power companies and billionaires. This is good for a group, good for a landowner, good for a homeowner. You scale it all down and most projects will pay themselves off in 7 to 10 years if you do it correctly.

I am more interested in that, decentralizing the control of electrical power to individuals. Small scaleable Wind Power changes the control and command of electric power. These giant turbines work on any scale, all the way down to one you can buy from me for the price of a car. Pays itself off in about the same time frame, then you have a small income, or a little extra juice for a plug-in hybrid auto, maybe replace your need for natural gas cooking and heating with your wind turbine electric power.

If you are interested in a small wind turbine, I recommend you start with this post about Net Metering. Follow the links and info there and then contact me with questions or purchase needs.  I’m glad to help and can supply all information and equipment you need to do this.  If you are interested in making YOURSELF energy independant for the price of an automobile, contact me at:
