Might there be a size at which it would make sense for multiple houses to group together and pay for a turbine that's big enough to supply all their electricity

Might there be a size at which it would make sense for multiple houses to group together and pay for a turbine that's big enough to supply all their electricity, rather than one per house like solar panels? (If enough of the local residents feel YIMBY about it, that is.)

There is certainly a market for smaller turbines in remote locations where it’s harder to maintain grid access, or any other scenario where pure $/W is not the only factor.

  In locations where wind regimes correlation to nearby other ones are among the lowest.
