Actually there is a limit on the power a free turbine can collect at best 60% of the available wind. Designs using sails on ski-lift type structure are more efficient over a greater wind range and can even be made to work well at ground level below planning permission height requirements. A 200m long sails on rails generate 10s of KW for very little capital investment.
