    This document compares three wind turbine designs by location, specifications, power output, efficiency, and cost. Design 1 is located in hills with 45m blades, 0.43 efficiency factor, and lowest cost of $0.30/watt powering 611 homes. Design 2 is in plains with 45m blades, 0.45 efficiency factor, powers 644 homes but has highest cost. Design 3 is offshore with 37m blades and highest efficiency of 0.58, powering 566 homes at $0.32/watt. Design 1 has the best balance of high efficiency and low cost.
