Research on small wind turbine (SWT) is on the upswing in the last five years, as there is a need of energy producing machines to compensate with the fossil fuel based energy. The green technology wishes to create environment friendly energy producing devices based on wind or solar technology. In this paper, an attempt is made to make use of already existing waste wind energy produced by high speed moving vehicles on straight and curved roads and bridges respectively. The improved small wind turbine technology is easily put to both “grid-tied” and “stand-alone” systems. The market for SWT technology is encouraging in India because of high rates of electrical units. Kitchen machines also depend on electricity for operation. The model’s central axis rests on pivot, and is so designed that it can accommodate divider space of the street. The model easily rotates with to and fro movement of vehicle, which provides necessary tangential force, from either sides of the road, to the rotor wheel of the model.
