Thanks for the figures, Marilyn! Do you have a source that you could share with me? My cousin who lives in OK is the one who is thinking about doing the leg work on the personal windmill. I know she would appreciate some/a source(s) to figure all this out. She knows someone who put up a windmill many years ago, and has enough power to run her farm, plus sells about $500 back to the elec company every month. But, the wind blows pretty hard all day every day in Oklahoma. There is a HUGE car dealership in Norman, OK that has one windmill (pretty good sized) that produces all their power.

We actually only have an electric pump on the farm right now - to pump water out of the well for the cattle. So we don't need much electricity; thus, most of it could be sold back to Okla Gas and Electric company. There are 6 cousins who are part owners in the farm now, so we could all share the costs. We just need to learn more about the whole process.
