How much is it for one turbine?

We talked to our teacher and he asked us how much it was to buy and set up one wind turbine?
So on this wonderful post today, for you wonderful people, I'm going to answer his question.
I googled his question and this is what I got:
To buy and set up one of the larger turbines, it can cost some where between $30,000 and $70,000! But it all depends how big the turbine is and where it is being put up, because some locations would cost more than others.
To buy and set up a smaller sized turbine, it would cost between $2,000 and $5,000. But, again, it depends how big they are and where they are actually being set up.
These prices include: the turbine, foundations, wages for people who help amke and put them up and any other equiptment that may need to be used eg, helicopter or crane.
So that answers our teachers question
Luv Kenzie
