As the global population grows, the demand for conventional energy sources rises. This project offers a sustainable alternative by harnessing wind and solar energy. The system features turbines and solar panels designed to resemble tree leaves, generating electricity. The turbines, connected to a generator via a shaft, convert wind energy into power, while a planetary gear mechanism enhances turbine rotation for maximum efficiency. The artificial tree structure includes branches with turbines and solar panels, mimicking natural foliage.The optimal aspect ratio (AR) of 1.1 ensures the system operates at wind speeds of 2.22-3.33 m/sec, with minimal power loss and high efficiency. A cost-effective two-blade Savonius turbine was chosen for its performance. The total energy generated comes from both turbines and solar panels.This smart tree integrates renewable energy sources-solar and wind-providing a noise-free, eco-friendly, and practical solution. Its widespread adoption could reduce reliance on fossil fuels, making it ideal for public spaces, roadsides, and residential areas.
