Economics

The cost of your turbine will be offset during its lifetime and depending on the size and location in as little as 3 years. By installing a wind turbine now you are buying clean energy in advance. The price is locked so increases in utility rates only help to speed your payback time. Rebates grants and tax credits make it even more attractive and can reduce the cost by as much as 60%.

I can also tell you from experience it feels great to be making and using clean power. Knowing that it will help make the world a better place feels even better.

 

Wind power is also economically sustainable. Electricity from coal is not because it costs more than it appears. $.18 more per kiloWatt according to a very recent Harvard Study
