Do people in the middle east use wind turbines?
Farmers?
People in rural areas?
Even the people that live in places where there isn't a lot of wind?

"In 2010, the market for small wind systems grew 26% with 25.6 megawatts (MW)
of new sales capacity, nearly 8,000 units, and $139 million in sales. Sales revenue
grew sharply at 53%, while the number of units sold continued to decline." [in USA]

Wind turbines are not typically used by individual people, such as farmers, but are bought by corporations who then sell the energy to consumers or other companies, etc..
People in the Middle East have indeed begun to instigate wind energy programs in their countries: http://www.evwind.es/noticias.php?id_not…
The leader in wind energy is probably Germany (USA in 3rd) [National Geographic]
Typically, wind turbines are built in places that are windy, simply in order to increase efficiency and profit, though they can be built anywhere (it's just not very feasible).
