The Challenges of a Wind Turbine on Your Home

We’ve seen wind turbines popping up everywhere in the last few years for grid scale renewable energy installations.

In theory it sounds like a good idea to diversify our home power generation, but does it make sense to install micro wind turbines on your home vs. just installing solar panels? Let’s see if we can come to a decision on this.

The Dutch must have discovered something negative about wind energy to prompt them not to pursue a larger use of it in Holland. :pondering:
