Abstract
A generating set formed so that a generatorconnected to a rotary shaftturning and supporting a conveyorby utilizing the power by which a gas supplied by a supply meansinto a bucketpositioned on a lower portion of the side of the conveyorwhich is turned upward in the interior of a toweris moved up with the bucketin a liquidstored in the interior of the toweras the gas receives the buoyancy of the liquid. In this generating set, the supply meansis formed so as to turn compressed air into a plurality of bubbles of a very small diameter, send out these bubbles into the liquidin the interior of the tower, and hold down to a low level the resistance occurring when the compressed air is sent out into the liquidin the interior of the tower. An electric power energy value obtained from the generatoris increased with respect to a value of the energy consumed by the supply means
