No, it is not expensive. In fact, it is the most cheapest way of creating electricity. If you are planning to want to have your own wind making system, I recommend you to make it by using wind power, or solar power, because it more accurate and it's cheaper than all the other ways of creating electricity.
Wind power is one of the most expensive and inefficient sources of electrical energy, and is only made feasible through very large subsidies imposed on consumers by governments which acts to substantially increase electricity bills.
No because price for wind energy is only 5 cents per kilo-watt

Is wind power environmentally friendly?
Yes, wind power is environmentally friendly.
How is wind power collected extracted removed from the environment?
By building a windmill to turn the wind power into electrical power
What does a wind turbine do?
A wind turbines uses the wind to power an electricity generator.
What is another name for wind energy?
Wind power is another name for wind energy.
Why wont wind energy be able to meet the energy needs?
Because the Wind is not always blowing. Wind is off and on, we need power that we know will be there when we need it such as coal. But Wind Power is still great and it is "green."
Is tidal power expensive to locate?
Tidal power is incredibly expensive, moreso than wind or solar
How much does wind power cost per kw hour?
It is very difficult to give a figure. The cost of wind generated power decreases with hours of wind. Within certain limits. Typically wind power is inefficient because of the intermittent winds. Overall wind power is expensive.
What are three disadvantages about wind power?
1) the weather is unpredictable 2) spoil aesthetic look 3) cost of building wind farms is expensive
What ways can I power my home?
Still the least expensive way to power your house is with electricity. Although solar and wind power is "in" right now, both are very expensive in setting up. The initial cost of wind or solar power will out-way the savings quiet a bit. So for now there aren't really any cost effective alternatives.
Why is wind power difficult power source?
Wind power can be difficult as it requires specific geographic locations with consistent wind patterns, making it limited in some areas. Additionally, wind energy is intermittent, meaning it may not always be available when needed, requiring backup power sources. Finally, the construction and maintenance of wind turbines can be expensive and can pose challenges in terms of visual impact and noise.
Where can I get a quote for a new home power system, either solar or wind?
The best place to start is to hire an independent contractor to come out and give you an estimate on the whole thing. Converting to wind and solar power can be expensive.
What is the deffiniton of wind energy?
Wind energy is a type of renewable energy that is generated by harnessing the power of wind to produce electricity. Wind turbines are used to convert the kinetic energy of the wind into mechanical power, which is then converted into electricity through a generator. It is a clean and sustainable source of energy that does not produce greenhouse gas emissions.
Does alternative energy cost less than normal power?
Nuclear is about the same as fossil fuel in total costs, but more expensive to build the plant. Solar and wind power are more expensive and have to be subsidised to make them economic for power companies to use
Is wind energy cheap or expensive?
wind energy is only air but wind mills and wind turbins are about 5m to 10m dollars... so yes they are expensive.
Is wind power nonrenewable?
No, wind power is definitely a renewable source of energy; this is because it's not something such as oil that we will run out of one day. Wind is constant and is a renewable source of energy. In most areas it just doesn't make a lot of economical sense because it's expensive and there are a lot of places that don't get enough wind to power a whole farm of windmills.
Which is more expensive for home power generation, wind power or solar?
I looked for the answer, but could not find it. My opinion on the subject is that wind power would benefit you more because when the sun sets the power is gone. If you went with solar power, you would have to spend more money on batteries to charge. Thus a wind mill would be more constant during a storm, or cloudy day.
Is wind expensive or cheap?
Wins systems are extremely expensive and produce roughly 10% of the power they are rated at. A wind system I visited yesterday in Michigan will pay for itself in just under 200 years, unles it has a breakdown. Fossil fuel plants must also run to supply backup power to these wind systems. This fuel consumption is ignore to maintain a "green" status for the wind turbines. If we included this fuel into the overall power used to build, maintain and run wind turbines, the numbers would come out worse then a coal plant.
