The ridge tiles on the roof would be 10cm higher than
usual. In the gap would be the top half of the blades,
shaped something like a drill bit.
Assuming a 10m long roof, this would give you an area of
1m2.
I assume that the wind will be stronger at the ridge than
the surroundings as the
roof deflects it upwards.
Some non-trivial modifications would be necessary to the
top of the triangular wooden support thingies to make a
single turbine, so probably easier to have a smaller turbine
between each TWST.

Birds and squirrels could nest there, on calm days. |
