Their "patented mounting system" (!) will not make up for the laws of physics. And even if it worked as claimed (small wind turbine systems never do, especially if roof mounted) it is still pretty expensive. They claim 1400 watts, but typically such an install would get around 1/4 of that for most people. $6000 would buy a small grid tie solar system.

I cannot find a power curve of their product on their website, amongst other things. Opinions, experiences please, thanks. www.windenergy7.com .
