No wind?
Hmmm...
Maybe try solar energy. This is free. Put as many solar panels as you want, then a large battery bank to save the power for night use. I have seen solar panel installations that collect all the power needed for a home including electric washer and dryer machine.
Also, use direct solar heat to heat air or water that is moved through a heat storage medium for recovery later when needed. Solar heated homes work that way. Also good for solar water heaters.

Another free energy is to collect used cooking oil from restaurants. This oil can be treated to use in diesel engines. But even without treating, you can burn it as fuel oil to heat air or water. In the USA, used cooking oil from restaurants is free. The restaurants need to pay money to have this oil disposed of, so they give it free to anyone who brings a tank to fill and take it away.

Free energy from a magnet? This does not sound promising. But maybe....
If you have a large coil attached to a satellite, and the satellite moves around the earth in an orbit where it crosses between the north and south poles of the earth, then you have built an "earth alternator". The frequency is equal to the complete cycle time of one orbit revolution of the satellite. So this is an extremely low frequency AC alternator. Of course, you will need a rectifier on the coil, and a way to store the charge collected.... Maybe a 5-pf capacitor could do this...?

Best wishes,
