Big, the price of these wind turbines is dropping like stone.Only 2 years ago they were close to $900 US.I looked at the same 400 watt model about a month ago it was $525 now $499.It is to the point where wind power for the average person is within reach if he has the right location.Say you had two of them for $1000..800 watts and lets say you had a windy day at max for 20 hours thats 16 Kwatts in one day.My average KWHr per day this year has dropped to 12.82 because of energy efficient ..everything.But with wind ...storage is the key as in VRB.<g> gg
