Every house has its story. What's yours?

Earthtronics, an energy efficiency and technology company, is offering a rooftop wind turbine for sale to homeowners. The turbine, produced by Honeywell, is said to operate across a wider range of wind speed than traditional wind turbines, making it suitable for home rooftop installation.

According to Earthtronics, the Honeywell Wind Turbine "eliminates traditional wind turbine gear box, shaft and generators. The Honeywell Wind Turbine is a gearless, “free wheeling’’ turbine that generates power from the blade tips (where the speed lies) rather than through a complex slow center shaft. By practically eliminating mechanical resistance and drag, the Honeywell Wind Turbine creates significant power (2000 kWh/yr) operating in a greater range of wind speeds (2-45 mph) than traditional wind turbines."

Earthtronics says the turbine has a lower installed cost per kWh than any turbine on the market. Consumers can also benefit from federal and state rebates covering "anywhere from 30% to 100% of the overall cost."
