Wind power is the alternative energy resource that can be used to produce electrical energy. Those who are living in highly windy areas can easily set up a wind turbine to obtain electricity and make use of it at home. Windmills are made to generate electricity for household purposes, industries and farms. Today the technology has grown so much that we can use windmills to convert the wind power into electrical power. The excess power that is produced is stored in the battery for later use.

We can make our own wind turbines, which reduces the installation cost and as well as the power bills. Also, These plans are available to create your own wind generator with materials found online or at the hardware store. They include:

1. Turbine Hub

2. Rotor Blades

3. DC motor

4. Inverter

5. Battery

6. Necessary Wiring

First, we need to plan how to set up the entire generator with the tools. These tools are available in the market. This plan must include the sequence of steps that has to be carried out to make our own wind power generator. This will be the beginning of your wind turbine project, and the start of saving you tons of money every month.

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. You need to fix the motor where the wind power is converted into electrical energy. Once your wind generator is built you will need a set of batteries and a mechanism to control the battery charging process for your new system.

The next step is to build the wind generator towers. Simple pole towers can be easily constructed. They can be fixed firmly on the ground to withstand powerful winds. The pole has to be fifteen feet high or more.

Since batteries are the heart of any renewable energy system, it is always much better to use rechargeable batteries instead of disposable ones. Using rechargeable batteries really saves lot of money instead of getting a new one each and every time.

Then an inverter is required to invert the DC current into AC current that can be effective used for household appliances.

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

Finally, connect everything together with the wires and you are all set! Click the link below for some great plans on creating your own wind turbine.
