Why doesn''t everyone set up a cheap windmill attached to an alternator connected to a few batteries for house use?
If you can set up your windmill, batteries, and alter your house enough to use 12V power for less than about $4k, then that''s not a terrible investment, but it''s gonna be a hokey deal. My brother set up this type of thing, plus some solar panels, but he was too far away from the power line to get on the grid for a reasonable cost.

I am a Wind Turbine Technician! Ask me anything! : r/IAmA
I''ll give it a shot! To keep things as similar as possible to the single-wind-turbine example, I''ll use the same 2 MW-AC size, which is about 10,000 solar panels if a typical photovoltaic (PV) module is about 250 W-DC. The average size of a solar farm in the U.S. appears to be about 14 MW, with some of the larger ones over 100 MW - absolutely enormous.
