Dr. Daniel Farb, another entrepreneur, had a few ideas for the regulators, including mandating small wind turbines on the roofs of buildings (alongside solar water heaters), equalizing feed - in tariffs for all forms of renewable energy generation and working with architects to
incorporate small turbines into urban landscapes.
For Minnesotans, Windustry has developed a
small wind calculator that compares 3 well - regarded
turbines of different sizes, includes assumptions about pricing as of 2012, and
incorporates Minnesota's net metering law.
