The present disclosure provides a superconducting power generation device and a power generation method. The device includes a superconductor, a conductive coil, a permanent magnet and a cooling medium. When ambient temperature is lower than its superconducting critical temperature, the superconductor, made of the second-type superconducting material, is capable of generating a magnetic levitation force to an outer permanent magnet and levitate it.
