I read in the paper a school wanted to buy one but it supposedly cost 2 million dollars. All it is is a big propellar, a generator, maybe a transmission, connected to storage batteries, and basic wiring.

I have a cottage overlooking Cape Cod Bay; there is a steady breeze; I am wondering if there are any devices on the market which don’t require regulatory approval, but could generate electricity safely. I am looking for real-life experiences with units that function reliably, as I have heard about expensive devices which aren’t too reliable, have problems standing up to harsh weather conditions, etc.

I have winds 5 – 10 MPH normally and am wondering if it’s worth it to get wind turbines. I figure that solar panels would work better in the tropics.
