If you want to build your own wind turbine, the only thing better than reading our book is to get actual hands-on experience building turbines at a seminar. We have a few coming up this year–and we highly recommend them. When you leave, you’ll have a detailed understanding of exactly how to do each procedure in our book!

• Rocky Mountain Sustainable Living Fair, Fort Collins, Colorado, USA — September 18 to 20, 2009.

• Contact us for more information if you want to book a seminar of your own here in Colorado for 2-4 students, or seminar at your own location. Many of these seminars we put on are made possible by grant money from universities and community colleges, who sponsor instructors and professors to attend. We can also provide references from past seminars.
