  • Highway wind turbines joe arizona state electricity green power
    The great thing about collaborative design sites like Archinect is that they allow brilliant student ideas to escape the confines of studio and get the attention they deserve. Case in point is Arizona student Joe who posted this amazing idea on his Archinect school blog for a highway wind turbine would harvest the wind created by fast-moving automobiles to send power back into the grid. If feasible, this wind turbine project could be easily retrofitted to transform most of the world's highways into endless power sources....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/student-designs-highway-power/'>READ ARTICLE</a>
