The technology aims to provide a useful alternative to known devices for wind turbine or the like. This cutting edge innovation by utilizing rotating cylinder to extract energy from the wind is known as Magnus Wind Turbine (MWT). It is silent, durable, and reliable green energy technology. It can operate in low and extreme wind speed conditions. Current state of worlds technology is going toward renewal and sustainable energy. Wind is one of the green energy sources that continues to naturally replenish. However, Malaysia is one of the countries that has natural low wind speed of average 2 m/s, where current conventional wind turbine requires 10 m/s to operate at optimum. Thus, to overcome this problem, an innovative wind energy technology is invented by utilizing Magnus effect phenomenon. This phenomenon utilize the pressure difference between the incoming wind that flow the same direction of the rotating cylinder produces low pressure area and wind flow on the opposite direction of rotating cylinder produce high pressure area.
