Wind turbines for trains



The energy of the wind, which strikes a stationary or moving railway train, is transformed by special patented wind turbines into electrical energy that can be used for lighting and other services on board the train.

The patented wind turbines for trains are not the usual wind turbines that are trivially mounted on a train. Such a solution would be problematic with current wind generators, and energetically ineffective and absolutely useless.

Instead, they are special wind turbines designed to be integrated into the train structure. 

The railway wind turbines are protected and segregated, they do not pose any danger to passengers and railway operators, with whom they cannot come into contact and have no parts that can detach and cause damage of any kind both inside and outside the train. 

In areas with strong ventilation, adequately sized railway wind turbines contribute significantly to the propulsion of the train, providing, through motion transmission organs, the kinetic energy to push the driving wheels into rotation. 

This occurs without the transformation of wind energy into electrical energy and without the use of electric motors and therefore without loss of energy, which would be, if instead the energy were transformed, first from kinetic into electric and subsequently, through the motors, from electric to kinetic.

Wind generators designed for trains are robust, reliable, and relatively light. 

They produce energy, both when the train is in motion and when it is stationary, and produce energy where it is used, without costs for its transport.

The train can be equipped with high capacity electric accumulators. 

The cost of railway turbines is low.

In areas with good ventilation, the wind train is able to obtain substantial savings of non-renewable energy.
