Vertical wind turbines will spin as traffic whooshes past, and pavements and roads will generate small amounts of energy from all those commuter feet and heavy buses and lorries pounding down them.

Wind turbines typically have to stop operating in winds of around 90 kph. At these speeds, blades rotate at an extremely fast pace and can easily snap. However, his vertical-axis Magnus model can ...
