Wind energy is the renewable resource that can be used to obtain electricity. Windmills are constructed to generate electricity for household purposes, industries and farms. Today the technology has grown so much that we can use wind generators to convert the wind energy into electric power. The excess electricity that is produced is stored in the battery for later use. Best results come for those who live in highly windy areas.

We can make our own wind generators plans for building it, which reduces the cost of the installation and as well as the costs from the power company. Also, these plans are available to create your own wind turbine with inexpensive materials found online. They include:

1. Turbine Hub

3. Wind Generator Blades

3. A motor (DC)

4. AC Power Inverter for Household use

5. 8, 12, or 24 Volt Batteries

6. Necessary Wiring

Initially we need to plan how to set up the generator using your tools. Tools are available at any hardware store. This plan must also include a sequence of steps that has to be carried out to make our own wind power generator.

We start the plan with how to build a wind generator. You have to cut the blade in equal shapes and size and place in the hub with equal space. The motor must be set in place with the hub. Once your wind system is built you will need a set of batteries and a device to control the charging process for your new system.

The next step is to build the wind turbine towers. Simple pole towers can be easily constructed. They can be fixed firmly on the ground to withstand strong winds. The pole has to be fifteen feet higher than surrounding buildings and/or trees.

Since batteries are the heart and soul of any alternative energy system, it is better to use rechargeable batteries. Using rechargeable batteries really saves lot of money instead of getting a new one each and every time. You can even find books that will help you to get free batteries.

Then an inverter is required to convert the DC current in AC current that can be effective used for house hold appliances.

A charge controller can also be used to prevent the batteries from over charging, saving the batteries from being destroyed.

Finally, everything must be connected via the wires for sound connections. Click the link below for some great plans on creating your own wind power turbine.
