Solar integrated Wind Turbines for Sustainable Energy Generation from Urban Highways

The growth in the demand for energy worldwide has increased interest in renewable sources. Solar and wind powers are among the most accessible and abundant renewable options that promise a great future. This paper deals with a hybrid power generation system based on solar and wind energies to provide regular and reliable energy supply. This system integrates VAWTs with solar panels, along with a modified Savonius rotor that captures most of the benefits from both sources. In such a combination, one gets a stream of energy throughput throughout the day at instances when there is no wind or sunlight. Adding solar panels will enhance the reliability of this system and create an avenue for effective energy storage in banks of batteries for later use. The approach intends not only to support the use of wind turbines in urban areas but also to enhance integration in sustainable energy generation with the use of solar energy, particularly with storage solutions. Overall, this strategy presents a very promising solution toward reliable sustainable energy in various applications.
