So I was looking into green sources of electricity and they all come attached to a generator, whether it be by wind, water or gas motor. Ideally I don't want to spend money (buy gas) to make money, that is after the equipment is paid for. Now wind generators are pretty expensive, water wheels/micro hydro are great if you have running water near by, and still expensive, but is it possible to maybe build a one of these with a conventional type generator that one could pick up from an industrial supplier? I invision in my mind that to make a wind/water generator would be much cheaper and pretty easy to make compared to a retail model. Mind you I am not an electrical engineer so what sounds good may not be.
