(very low cost 24, 48 volt DC generators---mini windfarm is cheaper
than solar panels and its energy output takes place both in daylight
hours and at night if wind is sufficient---six-blade wind turbine starts
generating at 4.3 mph.
Store output as hydrogen instead of in batteries---need no controller, a
hydrogen fuel cell would be useful to convert hydrogen energy to DC
electricity, with inverter for small AC requirements.)

(U.S. average windspeed area map) In Roanoke area, average windspeed
is 5.6 to 12/5 mph, though we do get up to 70 mph winds occasionally at
the juncture of an east-west valley ane a southwest-northwest valley.

wind turbines on one pole---and mount the pole in a pulpit so it can be
easily swung down and put up again without ladders or cranes---make it
strong, the wind stress from three wind turbines is very high)
