Can i rely on wind turbine for my power needs?

Question

I have 24'' LCD TV, !.5 TR SPLIT AC , 250 liters refrigerator, 8 tube lights and 3 ceiling fans.

Answer 1

The Danish manufacturer Vestas manufactures wind turbines from 500 Kilowatts to over 4 Gigawatts; but have you any idea of price?  Also when there is no wind you need a back up system.

Answer 2

You absolutely can if you are willing to have battery backup or be hooked up on the grid for the calm days.  I have a 20kw windmill and I have the power company paying me about $100 for my extra electricity every month.  My house is 2000 sq ft and I have a family of 5 so I use about 700 kw hours per month (a lot more than you will use with what you have listed)

Answer 3

If you have strong steady wind, maybe.  If the wind is not constant, you may need battery back-up (or some other energy storage system) and a larger turbine.  If you get even less wind, you may wish to consider sun, or some other energy source.

Answer 4

Fridge 1200 watts

TV 300 Watts

Lights 480 watts total.

Fans 1500 watts total

This is a total of 3500 watts.  

The max power from wind is Mdot * Velocity

1.2*kg/m^3  Assume turbine area is 1 M^2

1.2 kg/m^3*1m^2*V=1.2*V kg/s= Mdot

(3500/1.2)^.5=V=54 M/s

Not very likely.

Answer 5

Yes u can definetly relay on it, if u r in the coastal area near by sea shore.
