Highlight:
Although wind power is a great choice for clean, renewable energy, the space windmill farms take up is an often-cited problem, but Chinese scientists may have overcome the problem with the debut of the world's first permanent magnetic suspension wind power generator, which can hang in out-of-the-way areas of towns and cities, and still create power during low wind speeds.

Summary:

  • The world's first permanent magnetic suspension wind power generator debuted in Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province on December 26.
  • Its cost is only one tenth of the traditional wind power generator.
  • Moreover, it can generate power by utilizing breeze, that is to say, wind of lower speed in cities can also be used to generate power.
  • In the past, wind power generators can be only built in the fields with large amount of wind.
  • Experiments show that under the same condition of wind speed, a permanent magnetic suspension wind power generator can generate 20 percent more power compared with a traditional power generator.
  • China's coastal and western areas are abundant in wind resources, so they can build wind power plants on large scale in the future.
  • As permanent magnetic suspension wind power generators have advantages in using wind of low speed to generate power, they will be mainly used in two sectors in the future: urban street lamp, speedway, sightseeing lamp system, and large-sized power grids.
