I don't get why people don't just use magnetic generators.
You could place repulsing magnets in a generator and as part of a turbine to push the turbine through another magnetic field thus generating some electricity.
I mean, it just seemed such an obvious thing to do to me. Magnets are clean energy, and hardly ever need replacement. And even when they do need replacing what's left isn't toxic.
Oh and by the way, it wouldn't be electro magnets pushing the turbine through the magnetic field, because that would result in them needing to be powered and a loss of energy. Conventional magnets would be used except for the very conversion system of the turbine. And I think you'll find almost any turbine pushes itself through some kind of magnetic field.
See, the future of energy is under our feet as part of THIS planet, not somewhere mystically up in space.
