A year ago today, "Jake," our 20 kW wind generator went "on-line" and began producing electricity for the BrewFarm. To date, he's produced 12,944 kWhs (a bit behind estimated output - but he's still breaking-in and the winds have been less-than-normal). When he is cranking, it pays nicely: our electric bill for last month was $.81 - yup 81 cents, with everything powered by electricity (except our gas range - just love cookin' with gas...).
