Reinventing the Small Wind Turbine
The last time I read about localized power on HN, storage came up, esp batteries and inverters.The majority of appliances now assume always on, very clean, 60hz (or 50 or X) power, because that's what the turbines at the power company have always made.What assumptions would have to change for appliances and human life to fit with localized generation? (Ie off-grid living)
