A method and system are disclosed for efficiently extracting power from the wind. Stationary frames and or those self-aligning into diametric opposition to approaching winds incorporate wind-receiving inlets (WRI) to channel air currents blowing into first larger open ends. Momentum-induced compression proportional to wind velocity and WRI geometries cause air to exit from second smaller WRI ends at higher pressure. Independently or in combination with elevated-pressure feeds accumulated by other WRI array-frames, wind thus diverted provides mass flow to variable throughput expansion nozzle(s) developing higher than ambient wind velocity discharge stream(s) there-from. Nozzle discharge(s) applied tangential to a disc turbine optimized for low-pressure operation, combined with the induction of its expanding exhaust stream into a separate high-velocity air-stream maximizes the differential pressure across the turbine translating into an increased rate of turbine rotation and electrical work output realized from a co-rotating alternator exceeding that of machines in the prior art.
