    Isn’t wind energy better on balconies?

      Sadly really small wind turbines are really ineffective and not worth the investment until you have a really windy balcony. If you only have a few square meters solar is the only choice.

      But I’d still love to have a small windmill in my garden.

      If everyone puts wind turbines on the balconies they might end up blowing the building over

      Doubt it. Wind around buildings tends to be shit.

      There’s a reason they build turbines on hilltops and out at sea.
