Dude, all you need to do is spend $13k for one of these,

And then mount it 30 feet above the tallest tree or building near you.
How hard can it be?
I thought it would be nice to get a wind turbine since that could produce some useful electricity in months that contain the letter ‘r’.
Price of electricity is like 10 cents a kWh average throughout the year
11000/2/0.1 = 55000 hours
Will pay off if it produces 2 kW for 6 years straight. I don’t think I’m getting one.
Even open flat farmland might not be good enough. They need to follow ridgelines for best success.
i mean, if you’re in flat open farmland with a steady breeze why the hell not run up a pole?
Most of us aren’t on farms. But yeah, if you are I’d definitely look into it. Especially if you’re running large refrigerators and/or freezers.
After the dollar collapses all of us are going to be on farms
Guess again.
