Gene; Get your electric bill out and study it and you will answer your own question. There should be a bar graph showing your last 12 months of usage, plus a block showing your average daily killowatt consumption. Most homes use more than this turbine is producing. That's why we are adding 2300Ws of PV next spring. Anyone who thinks they can make money overproducing electricity to "sell Back" to the utility to make money is going to be saddly disapointed. (sell back $.03?/ KWH--- Buy $.12?/KWH). First find ways to reduce your consumption, (turn off lights behind your self, buy energy efficient appliances and heating equip.) Then if so inclined, buy a renewable generation system that will produce -100% of your current consumption, if the budget allows. First thing you need to determin is if you have suficient resources of sun, wind, or water. That's your fuel. Limited fuel, limited energy production. Renewable fuels, unlike fosil fuels are unpredictable. A gal. of oil or a # of coal have a known BTU output to power a heater or generator. We can't make the wind blow at 15MPH for 10 hrs each day or force the sun to shine 10hrs. at max intensity every day. Hydro is more predictable with only seasonal changes in energy potential, but only a few people have a good source of flowing water. The whole renewable industry is based on educated guesses, rather than known mathimatical equasions, relating BTUs to energy production. Many of those who invest in renewables are also conserned with the enviroment as well as economic gain when in this scale of energy production. Comercial Wind Electric generation is a totally different animal. Huge amounts of money are spent on years of testing and documentation when siting a wind farm. The power tipically goes to City Centers where there will never be anything but increased consumption.
