home wind power kits?

Are there any good do it yourself kits?

Wow! Laurie M is exactly right, and speaks with great wisdom. Wind power is really tricky, and requires expert knowledge from initial design to pouring the concrete. Besides, there are few places in the country where the average wind is really high enough to give you useful power, and yet calm and predictable enough to keep from destroying costly equipment.

Solar is much more practical if you must have an alternative source of electricity. Much easier to design and develop a workable system at home. In any case, unless you have a really good knowledge of electrical and mechanical things, you will need expert help. Your state government, or that of an adjoining state, probably has an alternative energy or solar energy center that has a web site. That will be your starting point. If you can’t find them, call your county agricultural extension agent.

Good luck!

NOTE: “Gabe” went a little over the top. Any homeowner with basic DIY skills can do much of the work involved in installing a solar/inverter/battery system, with some help from the manufacturers and your local electrical inspector.

Electrical engineers are indispensable, but don’t let one intimidate you into thinking you can’t do a job like installing solar panels. They are heavy, but not all THAT heavy. Any normal truss or rafter and deck roof will handle the weight. If some extra bracing is needed, any well-adjusted carpenter will know it, and can do it.

I have a science education and a lifetime of experience remodeling houses. So when I retired, I built my own passive solar house with a solar/inverter/battery system, and it all works great. I developed a good relationship with the county electrical inspector, and followed manufacturers’ specs and recommendations, and it all went together like a dream.
