Horizontal Wind Turbine Pros and Cons

Pros Almost never collapse Does not require much material to make it Catch steady winds rather than shifting winds Tri-blade allows for clean air to go through Cost less Fastest electrical generation

Cons Bulkier Have a larger blade Rely on huge rotor path to harvest wind Higher instantaneous power rating Produce 50% less power Needs higher wind speeds to start generating power Cannot withstand extreme weather conditions (tornadoes) (winds above 110 MPH)

Cons Continued… Visual distraction Can kill or injure birds Propellers make more noise as wind speed increases
