An apparatus for generating and a method for creating the apparatus are disclosed. In an embodiment, the apparatus comprises an element (e.g., a mountain) having a conduit formed therein. The conduit has an inlet and an outlet, with the inlet disposed at a first elevation and the outlet disposed at a second elevation higher than the first elevation. A generator is disposed in the conduit such that fluid moving through the conduit motivates the generator.

I claim: 1. A method comprising: forming a conduit in an element, wherein the conduit has an inlet and an outlet; positioning the inlet at a first elevation within a body of fluid (air or other gases); positioning the outlet at a second elevation that is higher than the first elevation; and disposing a generator in the conduit such that fluid moving through the conduit motivates the generator by the force of only the atmospheric pressure difference between the first elevation and the second elevation; disposing a radiator in the conduit to modify the speed of the fluid (air, other gases) for control and regulation; reducing the temperature of fluid by transferring heat to the radiator with the flow of fluid (air, other gases) moving through the conduit over the radiator to modify the speed of the fluid (air, other gases) for control and regulation. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising exchanging heat of the fluid (air, other gases) in the conduit to decrease the velocity of the fluid (air, other gases) moving in the conduit to modify the speed of the fluid (air, other gases) for control and regulation. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising: forming the inlet and the outlet such that the inlet has a larger cross-sectional area than a cross-sectional area of the outlet between the atmospheric pressure of the inlet and outlet to increase the pressure difference. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising: forming multiple inlets to feed multiple conduit branches that converge to feed the outlet to increase the pressure difference. 5. An apparatus comprising: an element having a conduit formed therein, the conduit having an inlet and an outlet, wherein the inlet is disposed at a first elevation within a body of fluid (air, other gases) and the outlet is disposed at a second elevation that is higher than the first elevation; a generator disposed in the conduit such that fluid (air, other gases) moving through the conduit motivates the generator, and a radiator disposed in the conduit to reduce the temperature of fluid (air, other gases) moving through the conduit for control and regulation. 6. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the first elevation has a higher pressure than a pressure of the second elevation. 7. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the first elevation has a higher temperature than a temperature of the second elevation. 8. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the element comprises at least one of earth and a man-made structure. 9. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the body of fluid comprises at least one of air and other gases. 10. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the inlet has a larger cross-sectional area than a cross-sectional area of the outlet to augment the pressure difference between inlet and outlet. 11. The apparatus of claim 5, further comprising a plurality of conduit branches, each having a corresponding inlet that converges to feed the outlet to augment the pressure difference between inlet and outlet. 12. The apparatus of claim 5, further comprising a second conduit to provide a second flow of fluid to overcome an inertial resistance to movement of the generator. 13. The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the plurality of conduit branches converge to feed a single conduit segment extending to the outlet, and the radiator is disposed in the single conduit segment. 14. A method comprising: forming a conduit in an element, wherein the conduit has an inlet and an outlet; positioning the inlet at a first elevation within a body of fluid (air or other gases); positioning the outlet at a second elevation that is higher than the first elevation; and disposing a generator in the conduit such that fluid moving through the conduit motivates the generator; disposing a radiator in the conduit to modify the speed of the fluid (air, other gases) for control and regulation; reducing the temperature of fluid by transferring heat to the radiator with the flow of fluid (air, other gases) moving through the conduit over the radiator to modify the speed of the fluid (air, other gases) for control and regulation. 15. The method of claim 14, further comprising exchanging heat of the fluid (air, other gases) in the conduit to decrease the velocity of the fluid (air, other gases) moving in the conduit to modify the speed of the fluid (air, other gases) for control and regulation.
