Installing and Maintaining a Small Wind Electric System
If the turbine cannot deliver the amount of energy you need, the utility makes up the difference. When the wind system produces more electricity than your household requires, the excess is credited and used to offset future use of utility-supplied power. Modern grid-connected wind turbines will operate only when the utility grid is available.
