Wind Powered Generators

Many more people will have wind as a resource than will have water as a resource. The principles of building a generator remain very much the same for both but wind has a number of special considerations and anyone considering this as a resource should look at the pages linked below:

Towers: You have to get them up in the air

Blades: Or what some people call propellers

Tails: And mounting the generator

Overview: Forcefield Overview of Windmill Design.

This is a good overview on Windmill generating systems from Forcefield.

SEALED: Forcefield Overview of Windmill Design.

This is the SEALED mirrored version of this site from Forcefield that won't be opened until after The Great Catastrophe.

Designs: Designs for complete wind generating units

Most homemade windmill generator systems need a LOW RPM generator and you will find under our above linked webpage many designs applicable to windmill generators.

Testing: An important step


	Batteries Another essential subject to wind generator systems is batteries to store excess power in times of high generation and to make power available when there is no wind. Batteries are discussed on another one of our other web pages.
