  • Abstract
    Since 1887 wind has been a reliable source of power in order to address the global challenges of clean energy, climate change and sustainable development. Availability of wind has been always a matter of concern. And economically viable windmills depend most strongly on the quality of wind resource. This wind resource is available from nature. It can be achieved by many other ways. Moving bodies always get enough wind. Vehicles especially trains face much wind flow, which is more than enough to run small wind turbines. Using train compatible wind turbine likely small size, electricity can be generated nicely. We estimated that annually 27299.69378 KW power generations can be available from a particular train which is very much potential in modern energy-crisis era. We showed that, for train, using the electricity to the sub grid, the vehicles can be facilitated more efficiently.
