I consult with Illinois and other Midwestern rural and semi-rural property owners on installing very small (<10kW) and independent industrial wind turbines (10kW-1 MW) on their property.

Wind generated electricity can provide the power to run your home or business (factory, farm, retail, commercial building or apartment building).

By using an electric heat pump, the wind-generated electricity can also provide you with air-conditioning, space heating (SH) and, in certain situations, domestic hot water (DHW).

Wind generated electricity replaces most of the electricity you now buy from the power company.

Wind generated electricity can replace most of the LP, propane or natural gas that you now use for space heating, and, in certain situations, hot water heating.

Small Illinois sited electric wind turbines may be eligible for the State of Illinois Renewable Energy Grants and/or Rebates.

Small Iowa sited electric wind turbines also may be eligible for the Iowa Alternative Energy Revolving Loan Program (AERLP).

Make an appointment for a consultation to see if it is practical for you to install a wind turbine on your property.
