Wind power on a micro scale poses several problems for the average green household.  The first being the size of a wind turbine required to generate sufficient green electricity to actually run your home?s electrics, the second being the cost of buying your wind turbine. 

The basic design of wind-turbines hasn?t really altered all that much from the original and traditional image of the old-fashioned windmill that was used to grind flour for bread or pump water generations ago. 

However, a revolution in wind power technology is now on the horizon with the invention by a young inventor that has created a completely new device to generate green energy, on the micro-scale.  The Wind Beld is a completely new approach being the first that uses aeroelastic flutter to create super cheap electricity ?  having fewer moving parts than traditional wind turbines, less energy is wasted as friction so it will produce green energy that is about 10 times more efficient than conventionally produced wind generated electricity. 

Initially the devise is likely to be developed for developing countries, where many homes are off-grid and already reliant on more expensive solar energy, but there is no reason that the invention wont also find it?s way in to your back-yard.
