Wind power has been undergoing a very similar rapid fall in cost, and rapid rise in installations, and is a fantastic natural resource (and also one that complements solar almost perfectly!), but it always feels like solar gets 10x the attention and conversation that wind gets.
Contrasting that with solar, where any surface area receiving direct sunlight doesn't prevent other adjacent areas from also capturing solar.
For that reason, there is very little reason to build small wind turbines, even if there wasn't a down-stream loss of power from putting too many close together.
But as I write that, I guess it becomes more clear to me that a personal interest in installing the technology makes one pay more attention to it elsewhere, and promote more conversations about it that get others involved.
It's because solar gets cheaper faster than wind does. The experience rate is higher.
Over the last 5-10 years, wind has been learning faster than solar.
I harp on one of this ideas a lot, Standard Thermal's resistive artificial geothermal idea. Their idea is to use densely packed fix orientation (to reduce mounting cost) panels feeding DC resistive heaters to produce heat that is stored in dirt for 100% availability. The projection here is 600 C heat at $3-5/GJ, which is close to the cost of heat from combustion of Henry Hub natural gas (natural gas at the customer end of the pipeline/distribution network will be considerably more expensive.)
