New electric power generation system with water drops based on the principle of electrostatic induction are considered. The preliminary experiments on the devise with one stage for the system are carried out for examining the possibility of effective collection of the electric charge. Dependence on devise parameters such as an applied voltage on the electrode, the length and width of its plate are examined in this experiment. It is found that amount of the collected charge increases with the applied voltage and the length of the electrode plate and the amount decreases with the width of the plates. It is also found that there is the upper limit on the amount of charge owing to water drops hitting on the electrode plate. For the survey of an electric power generation station with multi-stage system, the another device with two stage is constructed and examined.
