Mass-Marketing Wind Turbines

This Autumn you should be able to buy your own personal wind turbine from Ace Hardware. The turbine is made by Honeywell (look familiar? Look at your thermostat), who claims that this turbine can be efficient enough to power about 18% of the average home. While not quite as cheap as some of us would like (MSRP at a steep $4500 for one turbine), Honeywell and Ace Hardware are taking a big step in helping America become a little more green.

Note: You can also make your own small turbine from recycled parts on our website. The link is at the top of the page. Great project for kids this summer!
