Vertical Axis Wind Turbine
What is the best most efficient VAWT for me to build or buy?
A VAWT is a vertical axis wind turbine and I am wantng to know the efficient way to build one. I want it to produce the most energy but not to high or wide e.g 15m is too high. I want to be able to take it with me if I move house as well. And not too expensive. If there is something like this commercialy available I would also like to know.
If you want to build your own just do a search for Savonius wind turbine. These are very simple and inexpensive to build. I know there are sites on the web where you can get free plans.
