PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a horizontal/vertical wind anemometer capable of measuring both vertical component and horizontal component of wind, and capable of simultaneously measuring the speed of the wind by mounting a propeller on its end, and provide a method for efficient wind power generation. SOLUTION: This horizontal/vertical wind anemometer is provided with the propeller 2, a rotary shaft 3, and a wind speed detector 4. A horizontal shaft 5 and a wind-direction vertical component detector 7 are provided for measuring the direction of wind. Four tail fins 8 are mounted on a body 1 as shown in Fig. 1. A U-shaped support 9 and a support 11 are provided for supporting the body 1 of the anemometer, a pedestal 14 for supporting the anemometer, and a wind-direction horizontal component detector 13 for measuring the direction of the wind. The shaft 5 is adapted to pass through the center of gravity of the body 1 and through the detector 7. Further, a gravity-center adjusting lever 12 is provided on this. The direction and speed of the wind are detected by the detectors and transmitted to an electronic circuit board 20 by using wires 10 to convert them into numberical values. Changes in the direction and speed of the wind are displayed or recorded by a data processor 15.
