Harness power of nature. They compare power output of hurricanes and tornadoes to several nukes going off maybe more.

according to a recent study done by several groups, antimatter was detected in the eye of a tropical storm (among other high energy bursts like gamma rays)

Due to the lightning, not necessarily the hurricane.

Not really surprising since the temperature of lightning strikes is insane.

The study did say it was expected just never observed.

Lightning can reach 50 000 degrees

Imagine can harness that kind of power. Unlimited clean energy.

Sort of. Pulling elec from the earth scared me. The worst case scenarios are total destruction.

Not just that but the energies released from winds aswell.

It can only reach that temp because its a very low thermal mass. Doesnt take much energy to heat gas.

Also virtually impossible to capture because its random where it strikes.

Was referring to harnessing the power generated from wind speeds

Just save a step and harness solar, because that's where the energy that generates those winds comes from in the first place.

We already harness wind speed through wind turbines, and you can't let them go very fast or else it breaks the turbines and causes lots of damage.
