The document discusses a proposed technology called the Atmospheric Vortex Engine (AVE) that could generate electricity by artificially creating tornadoes. The AVE would mix hot and cold air to spin an artificial tornado, with hot air coming from existing heat sources like coal plants. It is predicted that an AVE could generate enough electricity to power a city of 500,000 people and be cheaper than other alternative energy systems. While harnessing tornadoes presents safety and stability challenges, proponents believe the technology has potential as a future renewable energy source.
