The problem
It is impossible to imagine the 21st century without different types of energy. Along with the growth of the planet's population, the demand for energy is growing faster. Unfortunately, for now, humanity gets energy mainly from fossil fuels.
Of course, water energy has also been used for a long time, but it has its own environmental problems: hydropower plants drain the river and harm the fauna living in the water.
In recent years, the rapid growth of technology has led to great achievements in the field of energy industry. Devices that generate energy from the sun have been created, which are quite efficient. However, they have their disadvantages, such as cost, size, and high competition. Wind energy is also used, but mainly with large turbines installed in high places.
After researching the market, understanding the demands and problems of our society, we decided to create a small wind power plant that can work anywhere and provide energy to areas without it. After studying the data and surveying the roads, we realized that our primary goal would be to place the small wind farm on unlit roads. Our wind farms will produce enough energy to light those roads, after all, unlit highways become the cause of many accidents every year.

Target customers
Our primary target customers include municipal governments, urban planners, and infrastructure developers seeking innovative solutions to enhance energy efficiency and reduce their carbon footprint. Additionally, environmentally conscious businesses and communities looking to adopt green technologies will benefit from our roadside wind power plants. and why not the residents of those rural communities that do not have a stable source of electricity.

Our solution
The essence of our solution is that we will start manufacturing compact wind farms that will be strategically placed on roadsides. These plants will harness the wind generated by the constant flow of vehicles, capturing it and turning it into electricity. The resulting energy will be used to light the road, providing a dual-purpose solution for enhanced safety and sustainable energy production. If there is no need for the produced energy at the given moment, then the energy will be stored in accumulators made by us from recycled materials.

Unique value
What sets our project apart is that we create clean energy and thereby benefit not only nature, but also people who use transport, an entire community traveling on dark roads. By leveraging the existing flow of traffic, we eliminate the need for additional land use or dedicated spaces, making our solution both efficient and economically viable. Thus, we use affordable equipment to create clean energy and solve the traffic problem.

Revenue model
Our business strategy is based on joint ventures with local governments, federal agencies, and commercial organizations that are engaged in infrastructure development. We want to provide a mix of maintenance contracts, installation services, and product sales. Our revenue streams will also be augmented by investigating public-private partnerships and pursuing government incentives for renewable energy projects.

Team capabilities
Our passionate, inventive, and united team of high school students is driven by a common goal of improving the environment. Despite our lack of substantial work experience, we stand out thanks to our distinct viewpoints, inventiveness, and curiosity. We have learned a great deal about project management, cooperative problem-solving, and sustainable energy ideas thanks to the guidance of encouraging mentors and educators.

Supporting Evidence
Several studies show that kinetic energy from cars on roads can be used to generate power. Furthermore, the growing need for sustainable infrastructure and renewable energy across the globe confirms the market need for our novel solution.
