The present invention relates to methods and devices for generating heat for building structures or otherwise through wind power. In one exemplary embodiment, the present invention provides a wind powered electric furnace. The wind powered electric furnace includes a turbine disposed within a cavity of a first housing. The first housing defines a plurality of intake airflow paths having a narrowing profile in the direction of the cavity. The turbine is connected to a shaft. The wind powered electric furnace further includes a generator drivably connected to the shaft. The generator is adapted to generate electricity during rotation of the shaft. The wind powered electric furnace further includes an electric heater electrically connected to the generator, wherein upon rotation of the shaft electricity generated by the generator is transmitted to the electric heater.
