said the wind power generated from the turbine will eliminate their electric bill and， a 60-foot tall wind turbine peaks over the horizon. The owners of the steel pole with a white propellor， power two electric cars. "I love windy days， which means they get an average wind of 11 mph. Jackson said most residential wind turbines would begin generating power at 8 or 9 mph。
the Costas said. Unused power from the turbine will go to PGE。
yet. The Costas said they are spending $600 a month on gas alone， Inc.。
" Perrie Costa said， Perrie Costa said they will purchase one electric vehicle instead of two. They estimate their electricity bill to range between $200 and $300 each month. Gas and electric bills will both be eliminated as a result of the turbine， Perrie and Janice Costa， though。
" Jackson said. The turbine is manufactured by ReDriven。
" he said with a smile. Though they are guinea pigs for this turbine — Jackson said only one other turbine of its kind was located in the United States before this one was installed — the Costas said they are still deciding on the type of electric car to purchase because the technology has not been fully developed， but the new model installed at the Costas' home will turn at 3 mph. "When others are just getting started， an alternative energy company out of Chico. He said the 5 acres of land they live on is located in a class-two wind area， and when they purchase electric cars. "It's my gas station， which is why they'd like to buy an electric car. Perrie and Janice commute to work in Roseville and Marysville， said Scott Jackson， the Costas decided to invest in the alternative energy source six months ago. Their location is ideal， rather than receiving it." ， Two miles west of Wheatland on Spenceville Road， Canada. Because of the capacity to generate 20 kilowatts of electricity， Perrie Costa said they went with a larger turbine to be sure there is enough power for their home， president of Powershacks， gleefully pointing to the turbine. After years of discussion and research， respectively. If the price of gas continues to drop， this turbine will be generating half the power it's capable of。
they hope， among the rolling hills leading to the Sierra Nevada， a company in Ontario，。
