Topic Reading-Vol.1642-10/9/2016

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Storm chasers: the typhoon turbine that could power Japan for 50 years
Typhoons often cause devastating damages to East and South East Asia. The winds of typhoons are strong enough to destroy houses, blow away things and knock down trees. No one enjoys the power of the furious winds.
While there are increasing number of wind turbines across the world, none of them is designed to take advantage of this enormous typhoon winds. In fact, they are vulnerable to such strong winds. But what if such massive power of typhoon winds turns wind turbines?
Yes. A Japanese engineer entrepreneur is aggressively pursuing the idea of creating typhoon durable wind turbines to generate power. How close is he to realize the idea?
Enjoy reading and thinking of a day when people welcome typhoons.
