Wind turbine project installed cost: $ 2,000 / kW
Typical mechanical life of a wind turbine: 20 years Hours per year: 8,760
Average availability of wind
power: 24 % Market value of 1 kWh of electricity at production site: $ 0.07 Value of total electricity produced during wind turbine life: 20 x 8,760 x 0.24 x $ 0.07 = $ 2,943 / kW installed As you can see the payback on wind turbine projects is iffy even with no maintenance and operating costs included in the equation.
