Answer:
According to Figure 3, to purchase and install a wind turbine costs $50,000, while to purchase and install a hyrdroelectric generator costs $20,000. The hyrdroelectric generator is relatively cheaper compared to the wind turbine. While the hydroelectric generator is cheaper, it only produces 8 kilowatts of constant power output, and, on the other hand, the wind turbine produces an average of 10 kilowatts of power output. The hydroelectric generator processes constant power output, while the wind turbine processes varying power outputs, with an average of 10 kilowatts.
