What are the advantages of micro wind turbines?

• They can be very effective on a suitable site, there are no carbon dioxide emissions, they produce most energy in winter, a feed-in tariff is available, effective where mains electricity does not exist.

• They are very expensive to install, they require constant maintenance, they produce most energy in summer, no feed-in tariff is available, ineffective where mains electricity exists.

• They are only effective in urban areas, they emit carbon dioxide, they produce least energy in winter, no feed-in tariff is available, effective where mains electricity exists.

• They are ineffective on a suitable site, they emit carbon dioxide, they produce most energy in summer, a feed-in tariff is available, ineffective where mains electricity does not exist.

What are the disadvantages of micro wind turbines?

• Low initial costs

• High performance regardless of wind availability

• Initial costs are high

• No noise, vibration, or flicker
