Product Description
A Hands-on Guide to Harnessing the Wind

Have you ever wondered how wind turbines work and why they look like they do? Are you interested in adding wind power to your off-grid electric system, but have been put off by the high cost of equipment and installation? Well, now you can build and install your own wind turbine!

Harnessing the wind can be a tricky business, but in this groundbreaking book the authors provide step-by-step, illustrated instructions for building a wind generator in a home workshop. Even if you don't plan on building your own turbine, this book is packed with valuable information for anyone considering wind energy. It covers the basic physics of how the energy in moving air is turned into electricity, and most importantly, will give you a realistic idea of what wind energy can do for you--and what it can't.

Full-scale, actual size blueprints for the 10-foot diameter wind turbine featured in this book are also available from Amazon to help you along in the construction process. Search Amazon books for "Homebrew Wind Power Blueprints" by Tyrone Banderet!

5 out of 5 stars Best so far   April 6, 2009

I've looked at a number of wind power books. This is the only one I have found that discusses the set up of the inverter, controller, etc. The presentation on the construction of the wind unit is detailed, and included multiple sizing option. Highly recommend. But you will likely need more than one book if you are seriously interested in renewable energy. So keep looking. Try one on solar too, since you will already have the RE backbone in place from this project.

4 out of 5 found this review helpful

Dan Bartmann and Dan Fink, as well as the other '[...]' crew have put together a complete, comprehensive, hands-on manual for those interested in home-built residential wind power. I have seen first-hand their machines humming (get it...humming quietly!) along in the Colorado wind producing the very power they use in their workshop. I strongly recommend Homebrew Wind Power and will continue to use it in my classes on sustainable living. - Bryan Birch, Workshop Director, The Rocky Mountain Sustainable Living Association

I saw that the author wrote this book as his life story. You can see many tips and tricks, many options that he already tested. No frustration.
But if you like to build your wind power, you need a appropriated location / house.

This book is the definative source for this type of wind turbine. For the do-it-yourselfer interested in wind turbines it is a must have. The authors even reply to email quickly and informatively. This is the best purchase I've made on Amazon.

The book is quite detailed and all the steps involved in making a wind turbine are described fully. The best part about the book is that you can modify the design as per your requirements. Thank you Dans; great work!
