The New Wind Turbine That Can Power Japan For 50 Years After One Typhoon

It would be an understatement to say that typhoons aren’t typically associated with something positive. In the natural world, they cause mass destruction, wiping out entire communities and leaving many bodies in their wake. But a Japanese engineer has constructed a wind turbine capable of harnessing the immense power of these storms in order to turn it into useful energy. If his project is successful, a single typhoon would have the ability to power Japan for 50 years.

“Typhoons are normally nothing but a disaster,” noted Atsushi Shimizu, the inventor of the world’s first typhoon turbine. Japan is no stranger to the destruction of typhoons. In fact, the country has already seen six typhoons in 2016 alone.

Shimizu’s highly durable eggbeater-shaped device was constructed to counteract Japan’s energy shortage, which has been an issue since the Fukushima disaster back in 2011. “Japan actually has a lot more wind power than it does solar power, it’s just not utilized,” Shimizu said.

Shimizu, the founder of green tech firm Challenergy, says Japan could be “a superpower of wind.”

Before the Fukushima disaster, it was expected that nuclear power would account for 60% of Japan’s primary energy by 2100, but the earthquake and tsunami that killed 19,000 people also resulted in three nuclear breakdowns, putting that plan entirely off track. Today, with much of its nuclear reactors inactive, Japan imports roughly 84% of its energy requirements.

“For decades, Japan has brought in European-style wind turbines, not designed for typhoon zones, and installed them with no careful consideration — they’ve broken almost entirely,” explains Shimizu. Back in 2013, during Typhoon Usagi, eight turbines collapsed at China’s Honghaiwan wind farm, in eastern Guangdong, while an additional eight were reportedly damaged. Such unsuccessful efforts have led the Japanese government to focus on solar power, with many urban homes now incorporating solar panels. But Shimizu believes in the potential of Japan’s untapped wind power.

Shimizu’s typhoon turbine is unlike conventional turbines in that it works on an omnidirectional axis to allow for the machine to withstand unpredictable wind patterns. The speed of the blades can be adjusted to prevent them from spinning out of control when a storm hits. Called the Magnus effect — the sideways force that makes a spinning object stray from a straight path — it offers an astonishing amount of control over the turbine’s blades. Engineers can adjust the speed of the blades by simply tightening the centre rod.

A prototype, which has been tested, showed 30% efficiency — 10% lower than propeller-based turbines. However, the big difference to make note of is that Shimizu’s turbines are capable of surviving an actual storm.

In 2013, Shimizu quit his job and founded Challenergy, after which he won funding to invent his wind turbine. Earlier this summer, the functional prototype was installed near Okinawa. Now, the device must be tested under high-wind conditions to see if it holds up to Shimizu’s expectations.
It’s not completely known where all the incoming energy will be directed, however. Will it go right back to the grid? Or will it be stored in large batteries? Nevertheless, while questions remain and outcomes have yet to be seen, the idea is nothing short of groundbreaking.

  4. I was diagnosed with genital herpes about 2 years ago but believe I've had it for about 4 years. With early outbreaks, I had severe itching before an outbreak; it drove me crazy. Then a sore would appear in that spot (most of the time on outer labia, although I have gotten them near the clitoris and near the rectum too). I had hoped the frequency would decrease over time, but it has not. I was having roughly 8 to 10 outbreaks per year, sometimes one right after another. . I have been using Tee Tree Oil and Wartner (You freeze them at home) and they seem to be keeping the smaller herpes small but they can't seem to treat the larger ones. They don't get any bigger, but then they can't shrink as much. They get smaller a little part at a time. At least they are getting smaller! As soon as I see a new herpes appearing, then I treat it. At the moment I have been using Tee Tree twice a week and then using Wartner every 2 weeks. I was wondering if there was any other remedy about how to get rid of it permanently. I am only a teenager and I hate it most when it get pi-chins me to scratch it, it get sweets when scratching it most times! i wanted to get rid of it so bad Finally I went on net to see if i could get any help it was then i came across some series of testimony on how DR.OKEYTO has help people in getting rid of HERPES PERMANENTLY with herbal medicine so quickly i contacted him for my own treatment and he prepared me some herbs which i takes for some couples of days, and i take it as he says before I notice all sours in my genitals were all dried up and Gone thanks DR.OKEYTO for putting a smile on my face again i will forever remain great-full to you for your cute medicine no more itching and my family was perfectly cure for it and never experience it again. please friends if you have herpes virus and you really wants to get rid of it, please contact this great DR.OKEYTO for herbal treatment and you will get rid of it permanently.

  6. Hello, I just wanted to mention I have not had an outbreak of HSV 2 for almost 3 years now (since the first year I got it). When I first contacted it (did go to doctor and got confirmed) I had a couple outbreaks that year (very painful) and then no outbreaks ever again. Like I said it has been almost 8 years. The only thing I can think I did was I used essential oil applications on my sacrum. I did take anti viral meds the doctor gave me for a couple weeks after the first outbreak to take care of the acute symptoms (I didn’t take them for the 2nd outbreak later that year and now this happened in my life I can’t believe this. A great testimony that i must share to all HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS patient in the world i never believed that there could be any complete cure for Herpes or any cure for herpes,i saw people’s testimony on blog sites of how Dr. SANDY herbal cure and sent to them and they were cured. i had to try it too and you can,t believe that in just few weeks i started using it all my pains stop gradually and i had to leave without the herpes the doctor gave to me.

  7. Been a HSV (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS) positive is just like been through hell but EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE. So amazing and i want to testify of the good work done by DR idahosa a very strong and powerful herbal remedy. DR idahosa has proved science and scientists wrong for believing and thinking that there is no cure for HSV (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS) but to be sincere this GREAT MAN is so real and powerful. I never thought that this spell will work but this GREAT MAN has proved it to me and it has worked and still working perfectly. i was diagnosed of the deadly disease called HSV (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS) in 2015 January and i thought that is the end and there will be no hope. Speaking to anyone was always a problem because i was so worried and my nails was always itching me and always in the state of unrest in fact i thought it was over until one blessed day when i was searching for help here on the INTERNET, i came across a testimony about DR idahosa on how he helped a lady who was HSV positive. At first i thought it was all a lie but i decided to give it a try since there was no option and, when i contacted this MAN he laughed and told me that, that is too small for him and his gods to handle but i was still in doubt, and he gave me a form to fill which I did, then he called me and told me that his gods required some items in which we found a way to provide and prepared a cure for me, and instructed me on what to do and i OBEYED him completely as he told me. Then he sent a parcel to me through the courier delivery service. I got my parcel, it was a holy water and a pure holy oil as described by DR idahosa. I took the holy water and the holy oil and after taking it and drink he told me to go for check up but I was still in doubt and was so afraid to go for the test but i took a bold step and believed that it is well, and i believed all what he has done and all that he has told me. So i went to the hospital for the test it was so amazing, awesome and exciting what seems to be impossible became possible, the VIRUS disappeared completely from my system and I was tested Hsv negative (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS) was all gone. Quickly I called him and told him what happened he congratulated me and today i am a happy human again the way things use to be. Don't you think that this testimony is worth sharing? I promise to tell the world about him and i will keep sharing this testimony till the end because many people has died of AIDS and TB (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS) and i want many people who believed that it is over to know that EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE AND I WANT THEM TO GET HELP FROM THIS Herbal doctor by contacting him on his email at hsvnaturalremedyclinic@gmail.com. If you are HSV positive or you have fingernails fungus and you think that it is over i want to tell you that there is hope for you and if you truly and dearly value your life please contact him now on his email: hsvnaturalremedyclinic@gmail.com

My Brother of 39 years who has suffered of HERPES for 1 and half years has been cured by a Herbal doctor called Dr. KEN who uses herbal and traditional medicine to cure people.

  9. It took almost one year for my first real outbreak but it was the hardest thing in the world to get along with. I felt so unwanted and dirty. I tried many formulas, suggestions, methods to get rid of it permanently. Booked appointment with many doctors, professionals, even religiously until I started getting away spiritually and still it won't go. The worst is my outbreaks occurs within short period and take as long as even weeks to go away. I was at last placed on antiviral treatment which is a good treatment but for how long? I prayed every four times a day for God to cure me miraculously or direct me to cure because I know there is. During outbreaks I thought it's the end of the world but it's not, with time I will become normal again. I started trying fruits and herbs, take herbal produced, and with time became very interested in herbs. I read blogs, websites, and comments on herbs and built a stronger hope. I saw comments and decided to try Dr Utu African Traditional Herbal meds. I know of one mr Brown who was HIV and now brags he was cured of HIV with Dr Utu traditional meds but never give it a thought because I believed HIV already has a cure and never think it through or make a research. And for herpes my doctor told me that there is no known cure. When I saw testimonies of his Herpes cure on sites. I copied his contact drutuherbalcure@gmail.com. I showed it to brown who confirmed it was Dr Utu contact. I contacted him immediately and he also prepared and sent me herbal herpes meds through DHL. Right after getting this traditional meds I followed the prescription cautiously and withing days I started noticing rapid change and I know within me it's the cure. I used it for up to two weeks and when my test result was out not only did this herbal meds cure me but boost my immune and I feel real and free. Dr Utu African Traditional meds have successfully cured Herpes, Warts, HIV, Cancers, Kidney Stone, Asthma, most importantly this traditional meds boost immune and have no after effect.
