Hugh Piggott has taught many courses and written the best selling Scrapyard Windpower. He runs his own company, Scoraig Wind Electric, has made and installed hundreds of turbines and generators, and is a consultant to several wind turbine manufacturers, developing world projects, and the BBC 'Castaway 2000' series.

It's extremely satisfying to generate your own power from a natural resource like the wind. Windpower Workshop explains very clearly:

• what's involved in deciding whether a wind system is for you;
• how to design such a system - and then live with it;
• how to understand what suppliers are talking about;
• how to design and build your own wind generator from scrap and recycled parts.

The book includes a list of suppliers, consultants, support organisations, sample equations and a glossary of terms. It is clearly illustrated throughout.
