Reply to comment by FishMichigan in Aeromine says they have solved many of the problems that have long made domestic rooftop wind power compare poorly to solar panels. They claim their "motionless" rooftop wind generators deliver up to 50% more energy than a solar array of the same price while taking up just 10% of the roof space. by lughnasadh

It really depends on what use case you have and where you mount it.

But you're right that you're absolutely not getting nameplate capacity out of it very often.

Agreed. These could be good in a limited number of areas. Just as with tidal and wave energy generators, a good solution but only for very few places.
