In everyday life, the demand for energy is increasing at a rapid rate. So, it is urgent to increase the production rate. But the fact is that the resources used are mostly conventional energy sources that are limited and decrease with time. So, it is important to think of an alternative way to meet the power gap. In this case, renewable energy sources are the best option to minimize the problem. The wind is the most available and cleanest source of renewable energy. The highway offers a significant and almost constant source of wind power due to high traffic. But This Wind energy produced by the speed of the vehicles on the highway is totally unused. Electricity can be produced by a wind turbine using this wind energy. The stored power can be used for toll gates, street lights, public amenities, etc. The main advantage of this project is it can supply constant electrical power. This paper aims to harness the wind energy from the fast-moving vehicles with the help of vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) on highway dividers in Bangladesh. In this research study at the first random wind, velocity was created using Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) technique to predict the power generation from 10,000 thousand samples in the Matlab environment. Secondly, theoretically designed the proposed system to generate power. Finally, practical generated power depicts theoretical wind-generated power.
