On November 12, two third-year students of the school's Science and Mathematics Department participated in the presentation and award ceremony of the Botchan Science Award at the Tokyo University of Science.  It was a presentation of five outstanding research studies selected from among 221 papers, with 10-minute presentation presentations and a question-and-answer session with the university professors.  The presentation was the culmination of three years of work.  We have shown the possibility of reducing the disadvantages of wind power generation with the flywheel we have invented.  Unfortunately, we did not win the Grand Prize, but the judges gave us high marks, saying that our presentation was very good and that our research was highly complete.

   In addition to this, we received comments such as, "We would like to know what issues would arise if we increase the size of the power generation equipment.

   The competition was such that I would like to make the most of this experience in my future activities at the university I am going to attend.
