Wind Power & Systems Wind power is arguably one if the most controversial green energy alternatives. Some say that wind turbines are big and ugly, and don't generate nearly enough energy to make it worth while. Some argue that they endanger birds and ruin the aesthetics of a landscape. However, so do hurricanes, tornado's and mass floods. We at We're Green think wind power is OK -- discuss wind power and systems here.

Great Books to Learn About Wind Energy

Wind Energy is quickly becoming one of the most popular forms of Renewable Energy in the world. From small single wind turbines for home power to large arrays of monstrous wind turbines on mountain ranges around the United States, Wind Energy is often called the most affordable and cost-effective forms of renewable energy available.

If you are looking to learn about wind energy, and how you can apply it to your own life, Silicon Solar Inc, a Solar and Renewable Energy Company from New York offer two great books to help their customers understands the ins and out of wind energy for their own home, or on a larger scale. I recommend these resources if you are looking for detailed information, or just the basics – be knowledgeable on one of today’s hottest topics and renewable energy sources.

Wind Energy Basics - The wind power industry has been transformed in the 1990s by dramatic breakthroughs in efficiency, economy, and adaptability. Wind Energy Basics is the most up-to-date source available of information about small wind systems. The book includes the unique "standard small wind turbine rating" developed by the author, which is designed to help readers wade through conflicting performance claims by manufacturers in the U.S. and overseas. Also included is detailed information on planning, siting, and installing a wind system, and on integrating wind power with solar for more cost-effective and reliable off-the-grid applications. Wind Energy Basics is a great resource for the beginner making his/her first foray into learning about wind energy.

Wind Power by Paul Gipe – includes one thing that is often lacking from resources about wind energy; case by case studies of successful wind energy systems around the world. You will also learn about the latest technology to hit the market, the history and development of previous technology, and what the future holds for wind energy (both small and large wind energy systems). Wind Power is a great resource for the casual reader or seasoned wind energy veteran alike – Silicon Solar recommends this book to every customer who is interested in Wind Energy for their own home.

If you are like thousands of other around the world, and want to learn how you can use the power of the wind to provide power to your own home or office, these two great resources are perfect for you.
