Small scale wind turbines are becoming increasingly popular. Here, in Orkney, where the wind is predictably constant, many private householders are erecting their own turbines. They are noisy, so have to be set away from the dwelling - not possible in an urban setting. Connected to the National Grid they attract good income via the Feed in Tariff.
