An apparatus for generating electric power from wind energy includes: a blade unit having upright blades connected fixedly to an upright rod that has a lower end disposed pivotally in a base such that the blade unit is rotatable relative to the base so as to convert wind energy into a mechanical rotary power output; a generator disposed in the base and coupled to the lower end of the upright rod to convert the mechanical rotary power output into electric power; and a wind-collecting cover mounted pivotally on the base for covering the blade unit, rotatable relative to the base and formed with opposite wind inlet and outlet. The wind-collecting cover rotates in response to blowing of wind thereto so that the wind flows into an inner space in the cover via the wind inlet and out of the inner space in the cover via the wind outlet. |
