Best Answer

At 1200 kWh per month, you are using an average of 1600 watts. A 600 watt wind generator might seem to be a good buy, because it could supply one third of your energy.

You do have to consider total cost, including maintenance, and the storage and conversion system that would be needed to capture the wind energy when you are not actually using that amount of load.

You then estimate the potential savings. 1200 kWh, depending on your local electric rates, may be around $200US. Saving one third of that might take a long time to recoup the cost of the generator installation.

How can you make 1200 dollars in a week?

To make 1200 a week takes a skill or education. A person who makes min. wage at 8.00 an hour will gross 1200 a month if they work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, for a month. This is without taxes and SSI taken out. To earn a clear 1200 a week AFTER taxes/SSI requires a good job. To get a good job you need an education/training. The lowest wage you could earn is 40.00 an hour. A plumber earns that and more per hour, so does an electrician, but they have a skill.
