Wind power: huge tax revenue potential
by Eric Levine Editor Local governments and school districts in the Thumb could reap millions of dollars in personal property tax revenue from wind farm developments. Of, they could get zilch. That, essentially, was the message from Mike Krause and Carl Osentoski, two representatives of the Thumb Regional Renewable Energy Collaborative. read more

where can I get a cheap reliable electric motor to connect to a wind turbine that will generate 15 (or more) kilowatts with average 40 mile an hour winds.
and I need 2 that get 5Kw going about 2-10 mile an hour (this one will be pushed by water).

I took two bicycle rims, gutted them running a shaft through them to make a vertical wind generator. It works well with no problem. I lined the top rim with "8" ring magnets on the outside to get more rpm for the coils I'm using. Question is, how can I gain more amps using microwave coils, or can I ? I get 12v with no problem with three I found hooking them in series around the rim. They do well to light up 12v led clusters, but a 12v filament bulb will not light. They are the thin winding coils, and are the only ones that produce currant. I would need many of the thick wound coils to reach 12v which I don't have. What can I do to fix this for charging batteries? Can I make my own coils from old transformer wires with a heaver gauge? Any help would be great.
Here is what I'm using.
