Dear Daz, renewable energy (RE) is a serious disease, if you are truly infected, there isn't much hope I'm afraid.
I too, am a newbie. I would recommend getting or making a trailer, and then getting a small diesel engine, perhaps a 4-cylinder from an automobile, or something smaller if you can find it. Read the "Zubbly" posts, and seriously consider a large electric motor conversion (changing a motor to an alternator) that is spun by the aforementioned diesel on the trailer. This will be your back-up, and will ensure you will at least be able to keep your batteries charged when the wind (such a cruel mistress, so inconsistent and variable!) is low.
You can install a second tank with a fuel heat exchanger (the coolant is 190F degrees to thin the WVO)) so you can start the engine with diesel/bio-diesel, and once it is warmed, you can switch over to burning free "Waste Vegetable Oil" from restaurants. Your generator will smell like fish and chips (fish sticks and fries), but such is the price of free/non-polluting fuel.
As you add more wind/hydro/solar you will use the "fish and chips fuel" less.
Check out "www.builditsolar.com" you won't regret it.
