Wind Turbines--Build A Wind Turbine For Free Power
Author: John Mowatt
There are other ideas which may help of course. Solar power is clean but,at the present time, solar panels are quite high priced and have limited power output. Their best use is probably as an addition to wind power production. They can be used as roof panels on a building and will supply additional power.
Nuclear power is another source and this form of power is being used in many places around the globe. The cost to build nuclear power plants is very high however and there is a lot of public opposition to their use after the Three Mile Island and Chernobyl disasters.
Nuclear power stations will probably be a large part of future power supply around the world. If well built with all necessary safeguards they have been shown to be dependable and safe.
Wind power is at present the best all around power source for small scale power generation. Small individually owned wind power turbines can supply a large portion of our power requirements in the years immediately ahead.
Many companies are now offering wind turbine generators for sale to the general public. They are being installed by town and country property owners in ever growing numbers.
An alternative is to build a wind turbine,from available plans,at a very big cost saving. Any home owner or farmer in city or country may use this type of low cost power and be completely independent of the local power utility.
It is not even necessary to have high winds all the time. Even gentle breezes will generate some power. This power can be stored in batteries for future use.
A very good wind turbine power generator can be built using new or used auto parts. It may be installed on a roof or on its own tower. The construction of a turbine from available plans and instructions is really quite simple. The average person who can use simple tools will have no trouble in building one or more of these wind generators.
Excess power which is produced can be sold to the local power utility in many places. This type of wind turbine or windmill was much used on farms in the 1930-1950s era and was proven to be reliable. Two or three of them can be built to supply all the power needed and this can be stored in batteries till needed for use. Build it and the wind will come-- and bring free power along with it for your use.

I need work!! Just got laid-off! In the oil,gas, or wind energy fields! Will travel where ever!!Help?
Just got laid off and looking for work anywhere in this country or another. Been working for Nabors Drilling the last 6mo. and I am a fast learner, hardworking, and willing to travel anywhere and not scared of hard work or long hours, Been Looking in the the oil/gas industry and wind energy jobs, Please help with what ever you can assist me with
How is wind energy going to create jobs?
Not including the green jobs the free market has already taken into account.
Wind energy costs 25% more than coal. In essence our energy productivity will go down by 25%.
Whenever has productivity going down created jobs?
Do not give me the foreign oil, the only time foreign oil is used in energy production is for peeker plants. Wind can not replace that.
As an engineer I like the idea of power and all kinds of power. Also as an engineer I can not see a more expensive means creating jobs.
The 25% more espensive is from my Mechanical ENgineering hand book.
One coal generator vs. about 10,000 for wind for the same power.
where to begin.
I am an engineer.
We wast more energy at night than we currently or probale ever will get from wind.
If you borrow money to put in a plant, the building of the plant is a net zero jobs. As jobs are eliminated from other areas as you pay that back.
Wind will take jobs away from other industries, raise your monthly rate, taking jobs away from other areas.
I never said I was against wind (although we should focus on storage first) I just asked how it would create jobs.
We can still make coal and Nuclear cheaper as well. It was not that long ago the guy designed the new hopper (funny shaped) that prevented cloggs.
Thunder B,
I have evidence from several engineering manual. The link ou produced neglects the energy wasted due to the fact the wind does not blow.
If wind was cheaper it would go in under private investment. And T BOONE pickens would not need money to get it going.
qris,
Productivity decreasing does not create jobs. It may increase the job for that industry, but that means it must cost more and decrease jobs elsewhere. If you it takes a plumber 2X as long as one, you will be out more on plumbing and less on other things.
If i wanna pursue a job in wind energy what would i have to do?
Wind Energy Jobs
Are there wind energy jobs that are available in Texas?
wind energy jobs in Europe?
I’m an Indian and have 8 years exp in wind energy but now I’m looking for a good job in Europe (Spain preference) I’m learning Spanish as well. but I’ve searched lot of sites and fed up considering there is none of job for me, can someone guide me how can I get a good job over there. some links etc?
It won’t. And people tend to forget that even if it does create jobs, it is only offsetting the other industry jobs lost as a result. (remember his intent to bankrupt coal industry?)
Do not leave the present job.
The opportunities abroad is stand still.
Unless you have very special talent you are not welcome in any country.

i am not sure abou’ this
did you want to install it?
did you want to design it?
did you want to manufacture it?
did you want to market it?
did you want to crew on a sail boat?
maybe it would be good to decide what you want to do before you decide that wind related stuff is the place for you.
Hello! My boyfriend works offshore Great Yarmouth, two weeks on and two weeks off as an absailer. I won’t pretend to know much about this (and he’s offshore just now so I can’t ask him) but you need your offshore survival certificate and a health and safety update. He has worked for Cape and BIS Salamis. Maybe give either of them a call and ask where to start and they may point you in the right direction. It’s a good, mainly laid back type of work with really good pay, if you can handle being away from home, and neglecting poor girlfriends like me, haha! Hope it goes well xx
