Did you know? You can get a wind energy system which used to cost $10,000 for less than $700* - with our latest promotion, completely installed and ready to generate clean power for your home or business. The energy production is about $600 per year of cost savings on your electric bill. These small systems are about the size of a garage door, can be mounted on your roof, garage, shed or on a tower in your yard, and you can install more than one. They can be installed in any neighborhood and they are bird and bat safe as we care about nature, reducing pollution and not harming any animals so we put a safety screen around our wind turbines for that reason.

How much does it cost?
Did you know the price of clean, renewable energy is falling in recent years?
And we're sure you've noticed the cost of electricity, gas, heating oil and gasoline have been increasing.
You can now purchase a wind energy system that will have a payback in as little as 3 years. That means that if you own your system for more than 3 years, you'll enjoy free energy.
Solar heating and hot water systems can have a payback period in as little as 5 years. The two technologies are in fact natural complements (winds resources are strongest in the winter and spring while solar resources are strongest in the summer) and are often used together in hybrid systems.

What if my HOA doesn't allow wind or solar? Well, guess what. There's a law in Colorado since 1979 which states that you have a right to put in a solar or wind system for your residence and anything which states otherwise is unenforcable. Therefore, you can put in a system even if your HOA thinks they can say otherwise. See the Colorado law here.
