We want your Urban Turbine photos and stories!

People love the idea of making their own electricity using the wind. But how practical is the idea of putting wind generators in urban areas? This web site will help you explore the possibilities and the myths:

  • Do turbines specifically designed for rooftops really work?
  • What about towers in urban settings?
  • Is a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) right for my site?
  • How can I figure out how much energy is available at my wind site?
  • Can I trust a turbine to put out as much energy as the manufacturer claims?
  • How tall should a tower be?

Please upload your photos of Urban Turbines, and tell their stories along with them. One photo and story per entry, please. You must be logged into a verified account (to thwart spammers), but beyond that everything is as anonymous as you want it to be.Bookmark and Share
