How can I save on my electric bill? This was a question I had asked myself many times before too and this eventually led me to the discovery of the secrets of a wind powered generator. This system allows me to build my own renewable energy source at home to generate sufficient power for running some of my household appliances. On top of that, it is a 100% free energy source to harness and I was really curious to find out how to build my own electric wind powered generator.
1. How Much Wind Energy is Required for You to Generate Sufficient Power to Run Your Home?
A wind generator is able to generate more electricity if the area around the system is very windy. The increase in electrical power generated is exponential in nature, meaning that electric output can be increased 8 to 10 times more when the wind speed increases by only 2 to 3 times. Output is therefore directly proportional to wind power and you will learn how to find the best spot to put your generator for the best effects.
2. How to Save on your Electric Bill with a Wind Generator?
Wind produces kinetic energy which is used to spin the turbine fan blades. This turning motion activates the DC motor to convert this energy into electricity which is then channelled into the home for use. With only some affordable and also free materials that can be found at most hardware stores and also through online stores, I was able to start constructing my own renewable wind power system with less than 0 in total costs. In less than 20 days, I managed to complete the construction of this entire system.
3. Different Wind Power at Different Ground Levels
One thing to take note is that because of ground friction, you should look for higher elevated grounds to place your windmills as wind speeds can be greater at higher elevation compared a lower ground level at the same point.
