I don't think micro turbines are a viable solution. If you're talking about generators that attach to your downspouts to catch the rainwater and use its falling energy to spin itself, they take several times their own operational life expectancy to return the energy cost of creating them in the first place.
I was thinking more small vertical wind turbines. They also aren't the most efficient, but any little bit is going to help.
