Cycle port connected 1kW cylindrical vertical Magnus windmill, with storage battery and charger, solar PV, signboard and advertisement

System configuration

​

* Cycle port: A space for parking bicycles. Solar PV panels can be installed on the roof.

* 1kW cylindrical vertical Magnus wind turbine: A wind power generator. A cylinder installed on a vertical axis rotates regardless of wind direction and generates electricity.

* Solar PV: A solar power generation system. Converts solar energy into electrical energy.

* Storage battery: Stores generated electricity.

* Charger: Provides power to your bike and other devices.

* Billboard: A billboard for displaying advertisements or information.

* Advertising: You can make money by selling advertising space.

System benefits

*Energy saving: Wind and solar power help you save money on your electricity bill.

* Environmentally friendly: Reduces CO2 emissions and reduces environmental impact.

* Disaster countermeasures: Power can be supplied from storage batteries even during power outages.

* Advertising revenue: You can earn money by selling advertising space.

*Regional revitalization: You can contribute to regional revitalization by creating a design that becomes a symbol of the region.

Disadvantages of the system

* High initial cost: Installation cost is high.

* Installation location restrictions: Requires a well-ventilated location.

* Impact on the landscape: May damage the landscape.

* Noise: Wind turbines and solar power systems can generate noise.
