Abstract

Wind energy is one of the renewable energy that can reduce the emission of pollutants to the clean environment. The wind turbine is a technology that converts kinetic energy into electrical power. The difficulty of choosing a steady strong wind location needs higher investment. In this report, the problem can be overcome by locating wind turbine on the highway, which can offer an intermittent and sufficient source of fast moving vehicles. Vertical axis wind turbine has selected to place on both sides of highway to recapture the wind energy from high speed vehicles. The wind turbines able to collect wind power from all directions without tracking. Additionally, the generated power can be stored in the storage system. Globally, the wind energy can be used as a renewable power source to provide for electrical application like streetlight.
