Why Wind Turbine Microsystems?

Friday, June 20th, 2014

Many people may wonder why one would invest in a wind turbine micro system vs. a larger high output wind turbine. There are many advantages when installing several wind turbines for home renewable energy. Listed below are some very good reasons why:

  • Inexpensive upfront investment to purchase.
  • Much easier to install.
  • Permitting hardly an issue in most areas.
  • Insurance cost on property negligible to none.
  • Easier to maintain and/or make repairs.
  • Repair/replacement costs usually very low.
  • No crane required to install or service.
  • Easy to stop in an emergency.
  • Production continues if one goes down for repair.
  • No expensive tower cost or liability concerns.
  • Higher overall output for the price vs. one large turbine.

These are just a handful of reasons to consider investing in several micro wind turbines. Dollar for dollar, you will get more generating output for your money than you would investing in one large output turbine that is loaded with huge expenses and upfront costs (not to mention red tape).
