Abstract
A new wind resisting electricity generator that floats offshore supported by buoyancy-providing used tires filled with waterproof foam. Electricity is generated through water turbines, uniformly rotated using waves and under water currents, and through directional wind turbines. Used tires are mounted on a mechanical and electrical utilities structure and a wind energy structure to interrupt wind flow near water surfaces in onshore directed weather. Dummy floats that provide protection from floating debris for the water turbines and direct waves to the upper turbine blades are alternated with generator floats in a line offshore and are held together with connecting chains and recycled tires mounted on the connecting chains.
