Installation and maintenance costs for your personal wind turbine will vary greatly depending on local zoning, permitting and utility interconnection. Learn more about incentives and rebates offered in your area to help best calculate overall cost. The price of the turbine itself will also vary depending on tower height and type of installation requirements for your site. While costs do vary, a Skystream installed on a 45 ft (13 m) tower ranges from $17 - $20K.
If a more reasonable estimate of the installed cost of capital is $88 per MWh and operating costs are $21 per MWh, we can estimate a reasonable LCOE for wind power near $109 per MWh rather than NRELâs estimate of $72 â a more than 50 percent increase.f a more reasonable estimate of the installed cost of capital is $88 per MWh and operating costs are $21 per MWh, we can estimate a reasonable LCOE for wind power near $109 per MWh rather than NRELâs estimate of $72 â a more than 50 percent increase.
