B-More G asked:


How large of a building can one average sized wind turbine power? I don't know what all of the energy vocab means. Is it closer to a small house or apartment or more like a whole school?

A single wind turbine (1.5 MW, GE) would provide enough power to power a town (about 400 homes, or 2 large industrial businesses.) A single wind turbine would power about 20 schools.
