System and method for providing home energy

A wind generator for generating electricity from wind energy, comprising:

• a turbine including a plurality of blades, the turbine having a center disposed on a vertical axis of rotation, the plurality of blades configured to rotate relative to the vertical axis of rotation;
• a shaft coupled to the center of the turbine at a first end and extending vertically from the center of the turbine to a second end that is coupled to a generator;
• and
• a support structure configured to collect and direct the wind energy towards the plurality of blades, the support structure including one of:
• a circular side positioned around the turbine and tilted at an angle relative to the vertical axis of rotation to direct the wind energy towards the plurality of blades from each direction around the turbine, and
• a plurality of sides positioned around the turbine and tilted at an angle relative to the vertical axis of rotation to direct the wind energy towards the plurality of blades from each direction around the turbine
• wherein the plurality of blades is disposed parallel to a roof line of the support structure and includes an overhang that overhangs the support structure and depends below the roof line.
