Any smart person knows that having an alternative home power generator will be able to cut down on their monthly expenses. Electricity is something we can’t live without, something that we do want to live without is high electricity bills. And with fossil fuels going up, it’s only common sense that so does our electrical charges. One way to cut down on electric costs is by tapping a power source that’s free. 

One of the best free sources of energy is the wind. Wind blows all over the world, both in the day and night time. Many countries have already developed windmills for energy sources but this is on a bigger scale. You too can take advantage of this free source of energy by building your own wind power generator at your own backyard, at a smaller scale of course, and you can do this even on the weekends on your free time. 

To be realistic though, wind power generators will not be a solution to all your energy needs, especially if they are small, but, they can save you hundreds to thousands of dollars each year because they can power some of your electrical appliances. All you will need is just a few simple tools, ones that you probably already own, and about two to three days to build your power generator.

And if you’re thinking that it might cost you a small fortune to have a wind power generator of your own, you can just relax, it’s very affordable to create one on your own. You can get plans and guides for a wind power generator and see for yourself that all the materials you will need would only cost you at a minimum of three hundred dollars. This will include most anything and the fact that you will be doing the labor yourself, well this will cut down a lot on the costs. Well, you may add ten dollars or so for snacks if you ask a friend or family member to help you out.

If you can even find parts from the junk yard in good condition, then you can probably save more. Just make sure that your wind power generator is well built and sturdy and an withstand the mighty forces of the wind. And if you’re worried that you might lose your energy source on calm and no-wind days, all you have to do is to attach a bank of batteries to your generator to store excess energy which can be used on those situations.
