Utah Wind Power.
Utah wind power is a growing field, one with potential that dwarfs what it has achieved thus far. This is not to say that Utah is an ideal place for wind power on a large scale, for the most part it is not actually. But the same features that cause it to be less than ideal on a large scale actually make it more ideal on a small scale.
You see, Utah wind power is limited by geographical features. You might know them as mountains. Mountains are a giant wind barrier. But the wind isn’t stopped by the mountains, it is merely channeled. This is why a large scale wind farm in Utah isn’t all that viable of an idea. The mountains channel the wind with great efficiency into certain areas.This channeling makes Utah wind power idealized for personal use. If your property is the recipient of a lot of mountain channeled winds, you can get a high yield out of turbines on that property. It might not be enough to power your neighborhood, but it’ll certainly be enough to power your house, and you might even have power left over that you can sell to the power company. Recent laws have mandated that power companies buy excess power produced on systems with a grid tie-in.
