Proposed: A Wind Electric Co. generator system behind my house (N side), to generate 700-1000 W per month. System will store generated electricity in batteries to be used directly by my residence. As needed, I will continue to draw power from the grid.
I am in need of financing or a grant/tax credit. System has capacity to begin generating at just 3 mph
Estimated total cost of install approx. $10,000
Note: To date, no other residence within city limits of Eugene, OR has such a system. City coordidator for building permits says I am breaking new ground. I have told city and manufacturer I am eager to be a beta test site; I will invite news media and city, county, state, others to come here to collect data and do research studies.
I sincerely want this type of project to become a reality for myself and others.
Bill Streeter :
Due to the financial atmosphere many homeowners will ind it difficult to finance solar or wind projects . They should investigate the leasing program a friend of mine markets along with his equipment installations . He may also be interested in carrying your Vertical Axis machine . This leasing program allows the commercial or homeowner client to enjoy the energy savings , paying the lease payments with said savings and in some cases provide a positive cash flow . After the lease term is completed they will own the equipment free and clear . They receive the State and Federal rebates and tax credits . The equipment is also exempt from property taxes .
Hi Friends,
