| dc.description.abstract | The energy demand of the world has become unbridled in the past years and is
augmenting by leaps and bounds. With increase in energy demand, the conventional
sources of energy (fossil fuels, nuclear) are encumbered with monumental pressure and
hence, the unremitting use of it, leads to dearth of fossil fuels. This has provoked an
extensive research into the area of non-conventional energy sources like hydro, wind,
thermal energy, etc. Out of these, the wind energy is being discussed in this paper. Wind
energy has a lot of potential and advantages but its utilization is restricted due to its
irregularity, geographical conditions and its availability. Our primary goal is to suggest an
idea that can surmount these conundrums and utilize the wind energy to its maximum
extent. This paper deals with the wind energy that can be derived from the wasted wind
energy from industrial exhaust fans. The wind force from an exhaust fan can drive a small
windmill and the energy generated from it will be stored in energy storage unit. The
power stored in the battery and then it can be supplied to the load and hence, this wasted
power from exhaust fan can be utilized to meet the growing energy demand | en_US |
