WIND POWER D.I.Y. GENERATOR

Eskom (utility) power is not sustainable energy, unreliable, pollutes the atmosphere, and in the case of nuclear power, produces dangerous radioactive waste. Eskom power is not the only option, however, and since I live in the windiest city in South Africa wind energy was the obvious alternative. Nine months of experimentation later, I had a working permanent magnet generator in my back garden.

The generator had to fulfil the following design criteria: An effective source of alternative power, allowing the generation of a portion of the electricity required for the household. Constructed using only a drill press and band saw (although rotors needed industrial cutting), and avoiding high technology. Small and light enough to be picked up and mounted by hand. Made from readily available materials. Items such as bearings and the shaft should be easily available and low cost. Safe: i.e. if something failed or broke damage to property would be minimal. Cheap, but sturdy enough to withstand a Northwest gale in Cape Town!
