At the surface the winds are very low speed due to the air density. You probably could still extract enough energy from it to power your equipment, but it may be rather unreliable.
I'm surprised the Zephyr project hasn't been mentioned:
One interesting design trick I've not seen used anywhere is this.It permits high torque transmission through walls with zero leakage.Despite the fact the report says it was first described in a nuclear engineering lecture series in the 1960's I can find nothing else about it, or it being used anywhere. I find this very odd as it seems ideal for use in rotary motion feed through for UHV chambersI've made one of these up with a pair of cardboard cylinders, lined up and glued to a file card on opposite sides and I can confirm it really does work.
Relying on elastic deformation may make it unsuitable for long term use?
NASA is asking the public to help them explore "hell," as the agency terms it — the roasting surface of the planet Venus.The cloud-shrouded planet is so socked in that its surface — which is covered in lava flows and possibly active volcanoes — soars to oven-like temperatures of 840 degrees Fahrenheit (450 degrees Celsius). The surface pressure is so great that it would quickly crush a nuclear submarine, according to NASA.But NASA has plans to deploy a very hardy rover to the surface, and the agency is asking the public to design a sensor to ride on this early-stage conceptual vehicle. Called Automaton Rover for Extreme Environments (AREE), the vehicle will use wind power to spend several months carefully crawling Venus' surface. The vehicle requires the sensor to navigate obstacles in its environment, such as rocks and steep terrain.
