I am curious as to how much they are? If your not comfortable posting it up send me a PM please. How much power would they generate in your area i cannot say that i have paid attention to how much the wind blows but i am thinking its not windy enough to make that much power but i could be wrong. I would be very interested in doing something like this.
Thanks Keith

www.windterra.com has some info on energy to windspeed ratios. But if the wind is givin you can get 1200watts.
Price point I would say you can get them around $8500 plus install. (I bought the prototypes so my price isn't retail)

How does it work, do you have to have large batteries that get charged by the turbines then you run a circuit off that, or there some kind of automatic load balancing for the whole house? Sorry to go a little off topic, it's just interesting stuff.
I wonder how hard it'd be to get a permit in Calgary for those. It's already a little bit absurd how hard it can be to get permits for solar panels - although I think I've heard that council is considering softening the process a bit to encourage green thinking - but I don't think anything's come of it as yet. So something that's moving and a bit of a visual attractant, man I could just see those bureaucrats having a hey day with it.

I'm not sure what I would do if my neighbour put those up
