Thankfully there are a few sensible posts in a sea of misinformation! Some time ago there was a post on ATOT with a link on how to build your own wind turbine for about $1500 that would generate a couple hundred watts of power. It would generate useable power with as little as 5 mph wind! That was sooo cool!
Commercially, new turbines will soon produce around 3 MW each!
To answer OP's question with another question, why isn't Wave Power more popular?

I think it has to do with publicity, skepticism, and comfort with tried-and-true technology.
