Death Energy Huntsville: Wind power a partial solution to energy needs

Wind Power as a Viable Solution to Meeting Alternative Energy Needs Although it is much cheaper initially hooked with local electric company's grid than it is to set up and hook into wind turbines, in the long run saves you money by utilizing the wind for energy needs and at the same time more and more independent. Electric bills and heating costs are steadily increasing, but the cost of wind turbine energy is zero, and the cost of installing and connecting a turbine is steadily decreasing as demand rises and more commercial success of various companies, realizing the turbines and researching technology, in order ever more efficient.

Again, this is motivation, looking to get away from traditional energy sources, the same people to the power of wind for their energy cause, so that to benefit more business opportunities for wind turbine production and maintenance, the costs for the drives down consumer. "The prices that they are paid by the two local power companies for this energy standard retail rates-in other words, the homeowners and apartment owners are actually benefiting from its own energy production. Some federal lawmakers push to mandate the federal government, these tax breaks and other incentives for wind power in all 50 states. Your electricity," said Bruce Bowen, Pacific Gas & Electric, director of regulatory policy. John White points out: "There is power, strengthens the quality of the network." Huntsville, Alabama - Custom Home and property owners with wind turbines power armed might the next time tornadoes knock out power in Huntsville / Madison County, said two lawyers for wind energy in presentations Friday at the monthly meeting energy Huntsville. Robert Yost, president of the Huntsville-based American Wind Technology, and Logan Pierson, CEO of Wind Power Systems, LLC in Florida, offered their versions of small wind turbines, which provide localized power every time the wind blows. Americans depend on our power grids are vulnerable to power loss for several reasons, he said.It is time we had an energy shift paradyme. Yost stated that his micro-wind turbines that produce power in breezes as low as 2 miles per hour and can be operated in winds to 60 miles per hour, several advantages over large, three-bladed wind turbine parks. Pierson offered a different view of small wind turbines. Its turbines with vertical shafts offer to produce a high efficiency with the ability to power despite the direction of the wind with four years in the business; his company has set up wind turbines to power DOD communications equipment in Afghanistan. "Alabama needs a lobby for the wind energy," he said. Logan expressed long-term confidence in the prospects of wind energy. Both men agree that wind energy, like solar and other alternative solutions offer only partial solutions to America to meet long-term energy needs.
