    Challenergy, a Japanese venture capital firm, is developing new wind turbines
    .
    The world's first "typhoon power generator" was made by using strong typhoon wind to produce electricity
    .
    President Shimizu, whose eyes are shining, said that by making a new generator, he hopes to send information
    from Shitamachi to the world.

    Although global demand for wind power generation has increased, wind power generation in Japan is not as widespread
    as expected.
    Because typhoons prevail in Japan, when strong winds come, it is not conducive to controlling the wind direction, and wind power generation is unstable
    .

    The generator made by Challenergy does not use the usual wind to rotate the wings, but flexibly uses the force
    that occurs when the rotating cylinder meets the wind.
    The wind can handle
    it wherever it starts blowing.
    The cylinder is placed
    vertically.

    This is the first of its kind in the world to be used in this type of wind turbine, which can generate electricity
    in both strong and light winds.
    This summer, we will begin conducting demonstration experiments
    in the Okinawa area to generate electricity from typhoons with large energy sources.
    President Shimizu said that if the development of the wind turbine goes well, it will go on sale in mid-2018, and hopes to show the world the results
    through the Tokyo Olympics in 2020.
