Abstract :
A wind-powered piezo generator presented hereafter is composed of two haves. The former half is a vertical type wind power generator that uses the main wind flow to generate electrical power and then guides its residue wind flow to exert the latter half, i.e. piezo generator. Both the main power converted from the vertical wind generator and the minor power developed by piezo generator might charge the battery and thus save energy.
