William Kamkwamba :建造風車发电
克里斯 安德森:威廉,你好,很高兴见到你。
威廉 凯门卡巴:谢谢。
CA:那么,我想我们应该有一张图片吧?这是在哪?
wk:这是我的家,我住的地方
CA:哪里呢?那个国家?
WK:在马拉维,卡森固。在卡森固,是的,马拉。
CA:好的,现在你19岁吗?
WK:是的,我现在19岁。
CA:五年前,你有个想法,什么想法啊?
WK:我想做一个风车。
CA:一个风车?
WK:是的。
CA:然后呢,拿来发电什么的吗?
WK:是的。
CA:那你怎么做的呢?你怎么实现的的呢?
WK:我放学之后,就去图书馆。 我就去查阅会“应用能源”的书, 然后我就得到了有关制作风车的信息。 后来我就试着做了一个。
掌声。
CA:那你是模仿的--你就照着一本书里的设计就这么模仿做出来的?
WK:啊,不,我只是--
CA:怎么回事呢?
WK:实际上,风车的设计在书里已经有了, 它有四个-嗯-三个扇片, 而我的有四个扇片。
CA:书里有三个,你的有四个。
WK:是的。
CA:你为什么要这么做呢?
WK:我用四个扇片,只是因为我想增加电力。
CA:好的。
wk:嗯。
CA:你是测试了一下,发现四个比三个好,是吗?
WK:是的,我测试过。
CA:你用什么来做这个风车的? 用什么材料来做的?
WK:我用了一个自行车的架子,一个滑轮,还有用来牵拉的塑胶管--
CA:我们有那个的图片吗?可以跳到下一张幻灯片吗?
WK:有吧,风车。
CA:那么,啊什么?这是一个风车--能工作?
WK:有风的时候,他就会转然后发电。
CA:能发多少电?
WK:12瓦。
CA:那,够家里的电灯用吗?多少盏灯?
WK:四个灯泡,还有两台收音机。
CA:哇。
WK:是的。
CA:那--(掌声)--下一张图片-- 他们是谁?
WK:这是我的父母,在买收音机。
CA:他们怎么看待的?你那时候才14,15岁。 他们怎么想的呢?他们很惊讶/高兴吗?
WK:是的。
CA:那,你的--你接下来要做什么呢?
WK:嗯--
CA:我的意思是,你是想要再做一个吗?
WK:是的,我想再做一个-- 用来抽水和灌溉--给农作物灌溉。
CA:那新建的这个会更大些吗?
WK:是的。
CA:多大呢?
WK:我想这个应该要发多于20瓦的电。
CA:那这够灌溉整个村子吗?
WK:是的。
CA:哇,所以你来TED和人们谈这件事 让可以帮忙的人以某种方式帮助你来 实现这个梦想?
WK:是的,如果他们能我--提供材料,是的。
CA:你想过你将来的生活吗, 你现在19,你-- 你想继续这个梦想,在能源领域工作?
WK:是的,我想继续做能源方面的工作。
CA:哇,威廉,非常荣幸你能参加TED的会议。 非常谢谢你的到来。
WK:谢谢。

William Kamkwamba on building a windmill
Chris Anderson: William, hi. Good to see you.

William Kamkwamba: Thanks.

CA: So, we've got a picture, I think? Where is this?

WK: This is my home. This is where I live.

CA: Where? What country?

WK: In Malawi, Kasungu. In Kasungu. Yeah. Mala.

CA: OK. Now, you're 19 now?

WK: Yeah. I'm 19 years now.

CA: Five years ago you had an idea. What was that?

WK: I want to made a windmill.

CA: A windmill?

WK: Yeah.

CA: And so -- what -- to power -- for lighting and stuff?

WK: Yeah.

CA: So what did you do? How did you realize that?

WK: After I drop out from school, I went to library, and I read a book that would -- "Using Energy," and I get information about doing the mill. And I try and I made it.

(Applause)

CA: So you copied -- you exactly copied the design in the book.

WK: Ah, no. I just --

CA: What happened?

WK: In fact, a design of the windmill that it was in the book, it have got four -- ah -- three blades, and mine have got four blades.

CA: The book had three, yours had four.

WK: Yeah.

CA: And you made it out of what?

WK: I made four blades, just because I want to increase power.

CA: OK.

WK: Yeah.

CA: You tested three, and found that four worked better?

WK: Yeah. I test.

CA: And what did you make the windmill out of? What did -- materials did you use?

WK: I use a bicycle frame, and a pulley, and plastic pipe, what then pulls --

CA: Do we have a picture of that? Can we have the next slide?

WK: Yeah. The windmill.

CA: And so, and that windmill, what -- it worked?

WK: When the wind blows, it rotates and generates.

CA: How much electricity?

WK: 12 watts.

CA: And so, that lit a light for the house? How many lights?

WK: Four bulbs and two radios.

CA: Wow.

WK: Yeah.

CA: And so -- (Applause) -- next slide -- so who's that?

WK: This is my parents, boughting the radio.

CA: So what do they make of -- that you were 14, 15 at the time -- what do they make of this? They were impressed?

WK: Yeah.

CA: And so what's your -- what are you going to do with this?

WK: Um --

CA: What do you -- I mean -- do you want to build another one?

WK: Yeah, I want to build another one -- to pump water and irrigate -- irrigation for crops.

CA: So this one would have to be bigger?

WK: Yeah.

CA: How big?

WK: I think it will produce more than 20 the watts.

CA: So that would produce irrigation for the entire village?

WK: Yeah.

CA: Wow. And so you're talking to people here at TED to get people who might be able to help in some way to -- to realize this dream?

WK: Yeah, if they can help me -- with materials, yeah.

CA: And as you think of your life going forward, you're 19 now, do you -- do you picture continuing with this dream, working in energy?

WK: Yeah. I'm still thinking to work on energy.

CA: Wow. William, it's a real honor to have you at the TED conference. Thank you so much for coming.

WK: Thank you.

(Applause)
