MARYLAND ENERGY ADMINISTRATION Clean Energy Production Tax Credit.
I am asking them to explain this. It looks nice.
Draft Model Small Wind Ordinance for Maryland (2008)
Quote from www.energy.state.md.us: "The requirements set forth in this Ordinance shall govern the siting of small wind energy systems used to generate electricity or perform work which may be connected to the utility grid pursuant to the Maryland’s net metering laws (Maryland Public Utility Companies Article § 7-306), serve as an independent source of energy, or serve in a hybrid system."
Did we mention LOW WIND SPEED STARTUP?
If you are in a low wind speed area, and have a wind turbine and it is not designed for low wind speeds, what is the use of having it?
If you have to put your wind turbine on top of a 1,000 ft tower, to get hurricane winds to simply get it to start producing electric, what is the logic of even having it?
Having even just ONE Wind Powered Generator from reasonablepower.com could be smart.
Go for it.
Put off building that deck, which you might not really need, for a while. Wait on buying another new, quickly depreciating, car. Take a close look at the years and years and years expense for your electric and gas bills, and Go for it.
