The present invention relates to a method of generating electricity by utilizing the lifting force of the water. The method comprises of the steps of submerging and anchoring an air filled sphere ( 1 ) under the water, wherein the Archimedean lifting force combine with water pressure to form an upwardly vertical force (F). The said force is imparted by a rotating shaft ( 2 ) to unit M spaced from the water surface at an appropriate distance. Force F is converted to the horizontal rotating force (F 1 and F 2 ) and is transmitted to a turbine of the electric generator ( 8 ). The present invention also relates to a device using the method. The device includes a flexible hollow sphere ( 1 ) connected to a rotating shaft ( 2 ). One end of the rotating shaft is a part of unit M which includes a plurality of bevel gears (M 1 , M 2 , M I) meshed with each other. At unit M, the upwardly vertical force (F) is collected and transferred into the horizontal rotating forces, due to a system with horizontal rotating shafts and a driven rod, which are transmitted into a turbine of an electric generator ( 8 ). Unit M 1 the system of the rotating shafts, and the electric generator are arranged on a platform ( 10 ) spaced from the surface of the water.
