Subject: Wind turbines at Target!
WORLD WIND WATCH - IT¹S A SIGN OF THE TIMES. True to this oft used
company advertising jingle, when a major U.S retailer begins selling
wind turbines via its website something is definitely changing. Admired
and trend-setting Target is now offering one-kilowatt Bergey turbines
through its Target.com on-line store.
The Bergey XL.1 turbine is being offered as environmentally clean
and back-up power for homes and small businesses. The eight-foot
diameter turbine operates in a wind speed range of 7-24 miles per hour
with maximum power output at higher wind speeds. Target is offering the
XL.1 for $1700 and 32 or 40 foot towers for $490 and $690 respectively.
Before you jump into wind energy for your home, perform a wind and
electricity analysis of your property. Make sure a small wind turbine
will meet your expectations or recoup your investment in it. Most U.S.
homes need more than 1 kilowatt of power. Check local building codes and
consult with your neighbors too. Visit Target at http://www.target.com/
