Windmill Energy

If you’ve been following my story, you know that it’s my dream to one day build a home that’s off the grid and powered only by windmill energy and solar energy. Even though I’m not a hugely technical person, I think I can do it. (click here to see why)

I’m not looking to outsource a lot of labor, just to get help with the things that are too heavy for me to lift and things where I need equipment that I just don’t have. I want to do the majority of it myself. (yes, I know I’m a girl, but I LOVE science and technology and I’m up to the task)

Learn to Install Your Own Windmill Energy

I’ve been looking at some videos online that show how to make your own windmill power, but most of them are pretty vague and require knowledge of certain techniques before you can build. So, the learning by free video method is definitely out.

I was looking around last night, though and I think I’ve found my answer! I downloaded an ebook about powering your home by wind or solar energy and it’s a complete step by step guide on how to do it. (the method isn’t expensive either – it takes around $200 to make your own solar or wind power system)

Can You Really Do It Yourself?

What’s really cool is that it has a ton of diagrams which I need because I am a visual learner. Click here to check it out.

I’m really excited about this downloadable manual because it shows step by step methods of building my own wind or solar energy. You can either choose to follow the steps to build your own wind turbine or your own solar panel or you can do both. By the end of this, I might even be selling energy back to the electric company.

Another thing to think about is what kind of renewable energy is best to build for your home type and location. I never even thought about using my home’s location as a resource. I’m glad I bought this book before I built. Now, I can look at all the ways solar and windmill energy can be improved by my home placement and geography. I’m super excited to get started on this!
