They aren't nearly as efficient as they could be. Here in Minnesota they identified a very strong wind draft that occurs about 500ft (or meters) above the surface that happens every night. If that can be exploited, it can create a lot of energy. More research as that will push the technology significant steps further.

Either way, these technologies need to prove themselves to the public before mainstream use. That is in the process. The technology will grow.
