I am confused about the energy output a windmill has. How much overall watts per day can you receive from a 3000 watt waindmill? From what I understand, a windmill will only produce lets say 3000 watts when wind speed is 28 mph. If that is the case, how many watts will it produce when the wind speed is 7 mph which is the average wind speed in most places? So how many watts per hour per day would you receive from this? Considering a 3000 watt wind mill costs $6,000 would it really only produce 1kW every hour on average cause that isnt much? And if that is correct or close to it, if 1kWh is produced 24 hours a day, and it is used for 12 hours a day, will the other 12kW be stored in a battery for later use? Thanks a lot for your answers!
