Personal windpower
Source: Discovery News
Just because the Kennedy's don't want a wind farm in their backyard, doesn't mean you don't want one in yours. A small, affordable wind turbine available for the first time this September promises to help homeowners fight the rising cost of energy. The Skystream 3.7 stands 35 to 100 feet tall - depending on the location - and costs about $10,000 to $12,000 installed, which is half that of conventional turbines currently available. The developer says the system could save the average homeowner $500 to $800 per year on electricity.
