Utilization of Street Lights for Power Generation

Basics

• This page goes over various proposed methods of generating electricity on light poles / light towers / street lights
• This could be used to make them self powering (if given enough capacity), or as a method of elevating a wind turbine without needing to make a seperate structure for that
• Lots of scam turbines, need to see actual power yeild
• ALSO have the cost vs energy return, may not be worth it
