There are lots of places with windmills in new Zealand and there is also lots of windmills in the far north like on farms in the north.
If we have it in Te Hapua it has to be windy as because the higher you make the windmill the more power you get but the higher you go the more you have to pay. They manly put them up 20 stores high.
$5,000 per kilowatt . and $225m (the size needed to power an average home) might cost $35,000-$50,000. per wind farm.
If we have a windmill in Te Hapua it has to be very tall because the taller it is the more power there is for Te Hapua and its people but the bigger the windmill the more you have to pay to make it. I think we can put it on a big hill so we can make it small but it will still be high on the so Te Hapua can get power for free.
This windmill will aerate a pond or pump water out of your pond or river to water your animals or garden. This windmill will pump out of a shallow (up to 15m) well
There are two types of wind machines used today: horizontal–axis wind machines and vertical-axis wind machines. Most windmills are the horizontal-axis type. One wind machine can produce 1.5 to 4.0 million kilowatt hours
Horizontal-axis wind machines have blades like airplane propellers. A typical horizontal wind mill stands about as tall as a 20-story building and has three blades that span 200 feet across. The largest wind machines in the world have blades longer than a football field! Wind machines stand tall and wide to capture more wind. The more wind the more power.
Vertical–axis wind machines have blades that go from top to bottom and look like giant egg beaters. The typical vertical wind machine stands 100 feet tall and 50 feet wide.
