A solar venturi turbine includes an upwardly oriented venturi tube supported by a venturi support skirt. The venturi tube includes a tapered thermopane glass enclosure which allows sunlight to project therethrough and impinge on a tapered centrifugal fan fronting the thermopane enclosure and mounted within the venturi tube. Located above the centrifugal fan in the neck of the venturi tube is a high velocity fan. A high pressure compressor is mounted above the high velocity fan, and finally a turbine is mounted above the high pressure compressor. A venturi tube outlet flares outwardly directly above the turbine and is mounted to the venturi tube. The turbine is connected to a shaft to drive an electrical generator thereby producing electricity. The sun's rays heat the air within the thermopane glass enclosure causing the reduced density air to rise within the venturi tube and propel the centrifugal fan. The air continues upwardly through the high speed fan and the high pressure compressor increasing in velocity and finally passing through and turning the turbine which is connected to the generator by the turbine shaft. Initial start-up of the solar venturi turbine is with a motor which turns both fans and the high pressure compressor. The solar venturi turbine provides a clean and environmentally harm-free source of electricity without diminishing fossil fuel reserves.
