Traditional sources of energy could soon be a thing of the past. We need to change the way we get our energy and consider how much energy we are using in order to attain a more sustainable lifestyle.
There are many people who have already begun to do this. Previous problems with renewable energy have largely been solved due to new breakthroughs in engineering and technology.
With a good guide, even homeowners inexperienced in construction can create their own renewable energy sources, such as wind power generators. Wind turbines can reduce the average home's electricity bill by as much as 70-80%.
They can be built for as little as $200 using pre-used parts. The most expensive part might be a DC motor which can be as cheap as $30. You can find most of the materials you will need at your local hardware store and build it using a few basic tools.
The average American home can use from 14-20 kWh a day. If you start using a plan to conserve power, you will use much less than you are using now. Even if you don't have a lot of wind in your area, you should be able to reduce your power bill significantly with the use of a wind power generator.
