1 Horizontal Wind Turbine Pros and Cons

2 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

3 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)

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