How big do you want it? https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=DIY+wind+turbine&ia=web
I’m on a city lot, I’m pretty sure zoning requirements make my comment a joke.
There are designs intended for installation on urban buildings, but so far, they’ve not proved to be a more cost-effective spend than rooftop solar; there are really huge economies of scale which generally mean that it makes more sense to have community ownership of one big turbine somewhere.
Yeah, I have considered solar. Need to get estimates for that. Ours is an old house, and is ideally angled/situated for the sun rather than the street. The rooftop might be perfect. (Back when this house was built, it was alongside a river that has been redirected. Now the road it’s on it built on that old riverbed.)
