Wind Power Generation

Wind power generation is attracting widespread attention as a method of power generation that provides clean energy without emitting CO₂ by converting natural wind energy into electricity.

Using Wind Energy to Generate Electricity without Emitting CO₂

Windmill (750 kW)

Wind power generation uses power generators to convert the rotational energy generated by windmill blades into electric energy. As wind power generation produces renewable, clean energy without emitting CO₂, it is attracting attention in countries around the world. There is likely to be a rapid increase in demand for wind power in the future. Based on this global trend, Toshiba Corp. will take an active part in promoting the use of wind power generation systems as environmentally conscious energy sources both in Japan and overseas.
