The latest in a lifetime series of wind turbine construction guides, this is the first that has been specifically written as an ebook. There are numerous colour photos and diagrams. This is a step-by-step description of the of the various tasks including a new and simpler blade carving process, a new concept alternator using lower cost, more durable magnets, and details of how to weld the frame and erect the machine on a tower.
Readers of my previous works (for example A Wind Turbine Recipe Book) will already be familiar with many of the idea presented here, but years of experience building, installing, maintaining, and explaining this technology have lead to some significant new ideas and better presentation of the old. There is something magical about working with one's own hands to produce a machine that quietly and efficiently converts the free energy in the wind to electricity for our use.
My design ideas have also been taken into developing world situations to bring electricity where there was none before, and to empower the locals with the ability to build and maintain the necessary technology.

À propos de l'auteur

Biographie de Hugh Piggott

Born in 1952, educated in Edinburgh and Cambridge. I have lived off-grid on the remote Scoraig peninsula in the Scottish Highlands since the mid 1970s. I have designed and built a lot of wind turbines, and also teach courses and write books so that others can learn how. I am still very active building, installing and maintaining wind, hydro and solar systems for neighbours and other clients. A number of organisations around the world have adopted my designs and teach courses themselves or build wind turbines.
(http://www.windmepowerment.org) I spend a lot of time helping people with their projects and answering questions over the internet. I rely on sales of my books for income but to a large extent my work has become "public domain" or "open source" which is great so long as I continue to make some kind of income.
