Wind power can now be generated at home using small-scale wind mills. Personal windmills are often used in rural settings for small mechanical uses (such as those in barns) but producing energy for household use had always been prohibitive. A new prototype in small-scale wind mill technology is being developed by Andy Knight of the University of Alberta.

Mr. Knight and his colleagues have developed a simple, reliable, and safe wind energy generator that is cheap and user-friendly. Read more about this article here.
