the typical propeller-like, horizontal blades.

I suppose he means horizontal SHAFT, as most turbines have the shaft horizontal, and the blades are vertical.

There is one of these turbines near the intersection of the I-5 and I-405 in northern San Fernando Valley in California. Been there for years. Most people don't have a clue what it is. I do not know the level of efficiency of it, but if I were to put up wind turbines, this is the type I would look into.
