Most wind-chargers make three phase AC current that is rectified to DC inside the alternator housing. Output is usually 24 VDC or 48 VDC with the latter the most efficient. The controllers built for them require a battery bank. They use a "dump load" feature that sends out extra power once that battery bank if fully charged. That DC dump load would then have to go to an inverter to make AC current if you plan on using a conventional AC heating coil. So, to qualify for any warrantees, you'd need a 24 or 48 volt battery bank and a 24 or 48 volt inverter.
All of that is very pricey. Seems that for your purpose, you'd want a special built AC only wind-generator hooked to a heaing coil that is much bigger then any load that wind generator could ever produce.
If I was doing it (and I wouldn't use resistance heat for anything), I'd put in a system that qualifies for incentives and cut the price in half. Then make it big enough so the dump-load could run some of those electric heaters.

But, I want to talk about my tractor! We didn't even own a lawnmower, and all of a sudden we had enough grass to feed all the starving children of the bovine world. Naturally, I talked
