WIND POWER PLANT
The invention relates to a wind power plant having a Magnus rotor, a bearing unit enabling rotation of the Magnus rotor about the longitudinal axis thereof, and a drive unit that drives the Magnus rotor. In order to provide a wind power plant that can be produced particularly easily and inexpensively, has low operating costs, and can be widely used, it is provided that the bearing unit (20) is designed to convert transverse forces acting on the Magnus rotor into tilting movements of the Magnus rotor and to transmit the tilting movements of the Magnus rotor (1) to a generator unit (21), and a regulation unit (22) is provided to control wind inflow on the Magnus rotor (1).
