Air to Energy using Logicized system

We have seen that Pakistan is facing an energy crisis as well as pollution due to electricity production from oil and coal. Moreover, fossil fuels are expensive, which causes financial crisis too and we do not have oil reserves to cope with our energy needs so it is better to switch to green energy

Project Summary

We have seen that Pakistan is facing an energy crisis as well as pollution due to electricity production from oil and coal. Moreover, fossil fuels are expensive, which causes financial crisis too and we do not have oil reserves to cope with our energy needs so it is better to switch to green energy which is pollution-free as well as less expensive. We have a lot of traffic so why not consume the movement of that vehicle traffic? So we will be generating electricity by the movement of vehicles on metro stations and motorways. However, our project will not be only confined to wind only, it will also be generating electricity from solar panels. In this way, we will be trying to cope with our energy needs in a less expensive way. Our turbines and panels will be connected through the Internet of Things (IoT) and all data will be monitored from the control room as well as an android application through a remote server. This data will be used from fault analysis using Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Project Objectives

Objectives

• Designing Road side wind turbine
• To utilize wind turbines to capture wind energy from vehicles on the highway
• To transmit data collected from sensors over the communication channels to a remote server
• Measuring the wind speed, voltage, current, and temperature
• To develop a storage system for the power generated by turbines and distribute power with stability
• Implementation of an IoT based monitoring system for wind turbines

Project Implementation Method

Methodology

The research and development of this proposed system are mainly focused on the performance analysis and the early warning system of the wind turbine. To achieve this, it needs to have sufficient acquisition and analysis of monitoring data and make correct judgments regarding faults. Therefore, the organization of the system is divided into two themes to be carried out respectively:

• The construction of the embedded wind turbine monitoring unit
• The acquisition of the dynamic data and the performance analysis of the wind turbine

Benefits of the Project

Applications/Features

• Wind power is cost-effective. Land-based utility-scale wind is one of the lowest-priced energy sources available today, costing 1–2 cents per kilowatt-hour after the production tax credit. Because the electricity from wind farms is sold at a fixed price over a long period of time (e.g. 20+ years) and its fuel is free, wind energy mitigates the price uncertainty that fuel costs add to traditional sources of energy.
• Wind creates jobs. The U.S. wind sector employs more than 100,000 workers, and wind turbine technician is one of the fastest-growing American jobs. According to the Wind Vision Report, the wind has the potential to support more than 600,000 jobs in manufacturing, installation, maintenance, and supporting services by 2050.
• Wind enables U.S. industry growth and U.S. competitiveness. New wind projects account for annual investments of over $10 billion in the U.S. economy. The United States has vast domestic resources and a highly-skilled workforce and can compete globally in the clean energy economy.
• It's a clean fuel source. Wind energy doesn't pollute the air like power plants that rely on the combustion of fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas, which emit particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxide—causing human health problems and economic damages. Wind turbines don't produce atmospheric emissions that cause acid rain, smog, or greenhouse gases.
• Wind is a domestic source of energy. The nation's wind supply is abundant and inexhaustible. Over the past 10 years, U.S. wind power capacity has grown 15% per year, and wind is now the largest source of renewable power in the United States.
• It's sustainable. Wind is actually a form of solar energy. Winds are caused by the heating of the atmosphere by the sun, the rotation of the Earth, and the Earth's surface irregularities. For as long as the sun shines and the wind blows, the energy produced can be harnessed to send power across the grid.
• Wind turbines can be built on existing farms or ranches. This greatly benefits the economy in rural areas, where most of the best wind sites are found. Farmers and ranchers can continue to work the land because the wind turbines use only a fraction of the land. Wind power plant owners make rent payments to the farmer or rancher for the use of the land, providing landowners with additional income.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

The microprocessor is used as the system master monitoring chip in the embedded wind turbine monitoring unit. The monitoring items are included wind speed sensor, wind direction sensors, temperature sensor, voltage sensor, current sensor, and vibration analysis. The off-the-shelf sensor is used to read the status of the wind turbine and the internal Analogue to Digital Converter (ADC) conversion function of the microprocessor is used for numerical conversion. The Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) communication interface is used to read the result of the vibration analysis. So, these items are measured with the monitoring module and the measured values are all displayed on the Web application [1].

Data collected from the sensors will be sent to the remote server using one of the access methods ie. 2G/3G/4G/NB-IoT or Agile gateway.

Then data will be used for real-time monitoring and fault analysis. Reports will be generated on the basis of analysis and then alerts will be generated.
