What Is Residential Wind Power?

Residential wind power is a growing market in the United States and around the world.

Wikipedia defines wind power as the conversion of wind energy into more useful forms of energy using wind turbines. Residential wind power could then be defined as using wind turbines to generate household (residential) electricity.

Traditionally, residential wind power has been limited to remote areas of the world where connection to the power grid is not an option, but more and more consumers are choosing to purchase what are called "grid-connected" turbines to power their homes. The eco-friendly nature and the abundance of this energy resource makes residential wind power an industry for everyone to keep an eye on.
