Does small wind energy or backyard wind turbines make sense? Why do we see so much rooftop solar, but so little rooftop wind?
Bookmarks
00:00 Intro – Rooftop solar’s domination in the urban renewables sector
00:38 Why don’t we see more rooftop wind turbines?
01:38 Quality of solar resources – Solar irradiation in different places around the world
02:40 Quality of wind resources – Urban wind effects, wind shear effects, available power in wind
04:53 Available wind power in Kolding vs Canberra
05:40 Other points of comparison – Benefits gained from a rural location, noise and vibration issues, maintenance required
07:47 Applications for urban wind technologies – Off-grid properties, high-wind speed locations, rural farms, non-utility and aesthetic purposes, backyard engineering or DIY

10:11 Thanks to Brilliant for sponsoring this video!
In this video I’ll take you through the science and engineering reasons why rooftop solar is much easier than small wind, and show that the same wind turbine on a roof is likely to generate *less than 10%* of the energy a turbine of the same size would generate in a nearby wind farm.
And, because I know most of you found this video because you already know you want to do a DIY wind energy project (they’re fun!) or have an off-grid project that needs wind energy to diversify your energy, I have included some resources (Hugh Piggott’s great books on DIY wind energy and certified small wind turbines if you want to buy one).

As technology advances, we are gradually meeting our energy needs through alternative sources. However, solar and wind power have a major drawback: they depend on the weather conditions. If there is no wind or sun, the energy output is reduced. To overcome this challenge, we can use a more reliable and predictable source: the tides. We have been able to forecast the tidal patterns for centuries, so we can use tidal energy systems to generate consistent and renewable power. Tidal power can be as simple as installing underwater windmills. In this article, we will explore this new form of green energy and its potential applications.

00:29 What Is Tidal Energy
01:42 How Tides Work
03:51 Tidal Streams
05:37 Mainstream Use
07:20 Final Words
At just 40% efficiency, wind energy is by far the most efficient source of renewable energy on the mainstream market. Solar panels max out at around 20 to 22%, and the other 80% of the energy goes to waste. A new renewable energy source, however, guarantees an efficiency of over 80% and utilizes the moon’s gravity to generate electricity. If you haven’t guessed it by now, ladies and gentlemen, we’re talking about tidal energy.
What is tidal energy, how does it work, and most importantly, when are we going to see it on the market?
As the name suggests, tidal energy is the energy that we get from tides. Tides are incredibly powerful, and we can calculate their properties with astonishing amounts of accuracy. This isn’t anything new: humans have been doing it for over 2000 years. Knowing when the tides will rise is a much bigger deal than you might think.
You see, one of the biggest issues with solar and wind energy is the fact that we can’t predict when they’ll be at their peak. They’re not reliable. Sure, the amount of energy that can be produced is huge, but we can’t shift our entire energy framework so that it is based on sources that come and go unpredictably. Sure, we can store excess energy from wind and solar farms in batteries and then use it later, but as we’ve already mentioned in our previous videos, doing this at an international or even just a nationwide level just isn’t possible at this time. This means that our only option is to shift to a power source that is clean, renewable, and most importantly, reliable.
This is where tides and their relative reliability come into play.

Rooftop wind power has been a goal for micro power generators around the world for many years now. There’s no shortage of design ideas, but now there’s a new kid on the block that has no visible moving parts, makes no noise, and generates 50% more power than standard solar PV panels. So how do they do that?

Offshore wind farms solve one of renewable energy’s biggest problems: unreliability. With wind almost always blowing on sea, there is no lack of power. But the technology is struggling with a bunch of other hurdles.
We’re destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn’t need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What we can do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we’ll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess.
