Albatros techno: Windmills that can fall down: Low center of gravity windmills
Albatross Technology:
There is a company that studies unusually shaped windmills.
Albatross Technology
President Hiroji Akimoto
Explain that the windmill to be studied “can fall down”.
Floating wind power generation:
There are few shallow waters in Japan where equipment can be fixed.
Research is progressing on floating wind power generation.
Floating wind power generation equipment above the sea enables power generation even in deep water.
I heard about a windmill like “roly-poly toy”.
Japanese territorial waters:
Japan has the 6th largest area of territorial waters and EEZ in the world.
The floating type has more places to install than the landing type that is fixed in shallow water.
Japanese goverment:
Japan is offshore wind,
10 million kW in 2030,
It has set an introduction target of 30 million kW in 2040.
For that purpose, it is necessary to reduce the construction cost and set up a large-scale facility.
Albatross Technology:
We are studying a vertical wind turbine with a low center of gravity.
Rotate the cylindrical float and the windmill together.
How the generator works:
Stop rotation with the outer cord on the top of the float.
The rotating shaft itself that produces electricity is made into a floating body and supported by seawater buoyancy.
President Akimoto:
The performance of a cylindrical wind turbine does not deteriorate even if it is tilted by the wind.
Even if the wind turbine is tilted at 30 degrees, it is acceptable in terms of performance.
“I would like to demonstrate the actual power generation effect in a marine experiment.”
