Systems and methods for generation and distribution of commercial wind power are provided. In one embodiment, a deployment method centers on the commercial deployment of small sized wind turbines that use existing power poles or similar structures to place the wind turbines high above the tree lines and in a clean air flow regime. This deployment can be free of any land needs, and can generate substantial electrical energy without any new poles in the sky line. Each wind turbine can provide power directly to the power grid at the point of generation for usage close to the point of generation. The power produced by each wind turbine can be metered at the wind turbine, or the point of generation.
