Wind power as we all know is the conversion of wind energy into a useful form such as electricity using wind turbines, windmills etc. According to latest statistics, wind power produces about 1% of world wide electricity use and has increased drastically between 2000-2008. The principle application of wind power is to generate electricity, in fact electricity from solar or wind power require a small force for conversion and thus most of the electricity producing companies are against disclosing the procedure. Individual turbines can provide electricity to isolated locations, whereas, wind energy can also be used to pump water from underground or to grind grain. Coming to the crux of the matter, why do we need to generate electricity using solar or wind power and not depend on other resources? The main reasons are- # High electricity bills which will escalate further in the near future # Electricity via renewable power is cheap and the cost of producing varies from $150-$200 # Considering a country like India , most of the energy consumption is from non renewable resources including foreign oil, manufacturing of own power will help the country and the country would be no longer relying on other foreign nations # Upending global warming and reducing demands on carbon producing coal energy plants thus ensuring a safe and a healthy world in the near future . These ensures high savings and thus increases the economic strength of every individual and in turn the whole nation. Wind energy is plentiful , renewable ,widely distributed ,clean and reduces greenhouse gas emissions when it displaces fuel derived electricity. There are a lot of online resources that can help you with alternative energy sources. Let us take a look at a few here. |

Review Of Home Made Solar / Wind Energy Guide

Earth4energy is the brainchild of Michael Harvey, a man with a passion for energy conservation and has 15 years of experience in the renewable energy industry. He has, through this site, encouraged people to save energy and create electricity at home by enrolling as a member on the site and then more importantly, purchasing his self proclaimed “fully proof” earth 4 energy pack. The pack basically includes information on how to build solar and wind panels in the most cost effective way possible, with video lessons and simple easy to understand instructions for the technologically un-inclined. The home page has a fleeting mention and the core issues could have been better highlighted. Overall, despite the flaws in implementation, the nobility of the idea and credibility of the product can’t be doubted. Worth a visit! |

Greendiyenergy is almost like a one page website, trying to address your energy needs in the simplest possible manner. It basically aims at providing a simple and cost effective renewable energy solution to your non-renewable problems. It offers a guide to provide all details of setting up solar and wind panels at a fraction of the retail price. People running this site are not really scientists but they are ordinary citizens who wanted to save money spent on electricity and at the same time do it in an eco- friendly manner . So they researched and came up with alternatives. This “universal appeal” of the site makes it that much more attractive. The product details, the benefits, the costs, the money back guarantee … everything has been presented in a plain and honest manner. |

Can you save your energy bills by up to 80%? Well, according to John Russel, a home energy expert and an electrician who is the owner of power4home, you sure can. Power4home does what its name suggests: provides a renewable system to power your home. The site is very clear about its target audience: people who want to save the money they spend on power or better eliminate it. There are a couple of videos on the site which make for interesting viewing: One which basically communicates the essence of the home energy system offered by the site and the other a general news item featuring a consumer’s experience with solar panels. The website provides you with the necessary details on the power4home kit with instructions on setting up the wind panels and the solar panels. Mr. Russel also promises to reveal methods through which the consumer can get free batteries to run the system! |

Well if you are the one willing to face up to some disturbing truth about the environment and also willing to make a difference, homemadeenergy.org is the site for you. It is a comprehensive system/product site which not only sells its product but by giving data on US energy consumption, tells you why there is a need to switch to the “renewable”. Bill Ford, the founder of the site, directly interacts with the visitor through a video. The message is very clear: this is a solar/wind system for the ‘rest of us’(the common concerned citizen). With a number of case studies (including people from UK and Holland) to back its claims, the site definitely drives home its point. Plus the consumer also has the option of being unhappy with the product : he gets a 60-day time frame to get satisfied or else he is entitled to a complete refund. The terms and conditions of the product and the threadbare approach to the issue of energy consumption makes this site a must visit. |
