Wind Power To Generate Electricity

While our wind turbines and mills have come along way through technology to harvest the power of wind into electricity, Wind Power has a long past.

From the ancient Egyptians, who used sails to harvest wind to the settlers of the west who used windmills to grind wheat and corn, to pump water, and to cut wood at sawmills. As late as the 1920s, Americans used small windmills to generate electricity in rural areas without electric service.

With the increasing cost of energy, green renewable energy is on the rise.

Wind Power to generate electricity is now called Wind Farms. The world's largest wind farm, the Horse Hollow Wind Energy Center in Texas, has 421 wind turbines that generate enough electricity to power 220,000 homes per year.

You can save up to 80% off your electric bill by using wind power to generate electricity.

And you can build your own in your own back yard.

Surprisingly enough, you can get the supplies at your local hardware store and the total cost would be about $200.
