A traffic wind turbine and ventilation unit is disclosed which generates power from wind generated by the rapid movement of vehicles 1 on a road. A wind turbine, with turbine blades 3, is provided in an underground chamber. Louvers 2 allow the wind/air to enter the underground chamber. The turbine blades are caused to rotate by the wind, rotating a shaft 4 and driving a generator (5). The device may collect rain water in grooves 10, air may be directed through the rain water to remove pollutants from the air. Three units may be connected together. The units may form a network and supply energy to lighting, businesses and houses close to the road. |
