I'm intrigued with the idea of a vertical axis wind power generator known as a Salvonius Wind Turbine. While they are not as efficient as the typical horizontal axis turbines we are accustomed to seeing they are simple, sturdy and easy to build. Since I'm considering it for auxiliary power the inefficiency is not a major concern.
