site is confusing but I'm interested in wind energy

The site itself is a bit of a mess, but it does contain a bit of great information about DIY windmill building. I can't knock anyone who's trying to spread information on alternative energies and it's production.

Try "How to build a website" first.

An amazingly simple design that can be built in a home workshop. If you don't have a home workshop, you know someone who does, probably sitting idle for lack of inspiration, or who is bored silly from making too many cutouts of Aunt Bertha bending over in the garden. If you live in an area with wind, (it is very scarce here), it is more than economical to build your own wind generator. A trip through Oklahoma, west Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, and most of the western states will show you how many big power company wind gennys there are out there. In those same areas, a homebuilt generator, a couple of golf cart batteries, a charger and some low voltage lighting would eliminate a big percentage of grid power use. Even if powering your entire house is not possible, a system that powers your computer network, tv, reading lamps, night lights is very doable. And does not have to be expensive. Just do it your self, for less time investment than one season of Monday night football, or American Idol, and putting your or your neighbors tools to a much better use. It would be immensely more profitable and sociable if you can involve a neighbor or two. I am already planing on trying to drag some of my friends and neighbors away from their tv's for a while... it might not be wind power, maybe just some passive solar.

My Dad has the book on the right side and he managed to build a working wind turbine, so I suppose it must be good!

certainly one of the most informative DIY sites for wind power on the 'net.

Personal sustainability is a noble ideal, though hard to achieve. I gave up before ever trying. My brother though, is all about it, and in a position to actually try things like this out. He could electrify his fences and heat his hot water off of wind energy. His electric bill could be close to zero. I just have a problem with wind power when it tries to sustain an urban population, the larger the wind farm and turbines the more detrimental they are. Here's a great read on how trying to sustain a large population with wind power is failing.
