Supposedly, these new AeroCam wind turbines are more efficient than ever and you can put them on the roof of your house for the most efficient wind electricity production ever.  If you can afford the high price tag of $250,000 USD for a 250kW system, it might be well worth your money than getting solar panels for your roof.

The AeroCam’s unique design allows Broadstar to manufacture, transport, and install, and maintain it at lower costs than conventional turbines. A 250kW system will retail for $250,000, making it the world’s first turbine to break the $1/watt cost barrier. The AeroCam is designed to operate smoothly in wind-speeds from 4-80 mph, and these low rotational speeds mean that it produces a negligible amount of noise.
