If your house has a roof facing south or west you can have them put on your roof or if you have enough land you can put them on the stands in your yard. Either way they can help off set your electric use.
Although I have only heard second hand from others who had a wind turbine, but I've heard that they can be very cost effective. The only thing is you need a lot of land for this.
Most of these are decided with construction either a remodeling or new build, but they can add up to help your bills and stop the Earth from needing to waste resources.
Although I have only heard of the ideas they can either drill deep wells or a longer low dug piping system that is heated and cooled by the Earths constant temperature to then heat or cool your home depending on the season the Earth counters that.
