The windmill that produces electricity is called a wind turbine. The principle of wind power generation is to use wind energy to rotate the blades of the wind turbine, then use a speed multiplier to increase the rotation speed to induce the generator to produce electricity. Wind power converts wind energy into mechanical work, which causes the rotor to rotate and ultimately produces alternating current. Wind turbines can be divided into two categories. One is the horizontal axis wind turbine, where the rotation axis of the wind wheel is parallel to the wind direction.

One is the horizontal axis wind turbine, where the rotation axis of the wind wheel is parallel to the wind direction. One is a vertical axis wind turbine, in which the rotation axis of the wind wheel is perpendicular to the ground or the direction of air flow.
In order to solve wind power generation problems such as wind noise and instability, scientists have found a wonderful solution: an Australian engineer suggested fly wind turbines in the air. Because at an altitude of 5,000 meters to 15,000 meters, the wind blows at a speed of around 320 kilometers per hour. If the wind turbine can produce electricity at this altitude, it is estimated that the electricity generation efficiency will reach80 to 90%. Currently, he has started to cooperate with three other engineers to establish the "Sky Wind Energy Company" in the United States to realize this "fanciful" invention.
