CE 1.1 Project Information
Name of the project: Production of Electricity by Fast Moving Vehicles (Especially
Trains)
Location of the project: [PLEASE FILL]
Project Duration: [PLEASE FILL]
Organization: [PLEASE FILL]
Role and Designation during the time: Team Leader
CE 1.2 Project Background
CE 1.2.1 Characteristics of the project
Power generation is one of the biggest topic of concern for the present world and non-
renewable sources are at the verge of extension. It is the need for the current society to bring up
an option for the production of power using a renewable source of energy that is not going to
end. I have developed a project that can be helpful in utilizing the wind energy produced by the
fast moving train and convert it into electric energy. I had designed the model to utilize the wind
energy developed by fast moving vehicles in manner to rotate the blades of the turbine that is
attached to the shaft for rotating the magnetic field and thereafter generate electricity through the
general principle of induction. I had also considered the vibration of the train could also be
utilized for the production of electricity and thus, we will also be utilizing this media for the
production of the electricity. I had used the piezos placing it underneath the tracks for the
generation and collection of the electricity that will be obtained due to the vibration of the train.

CE 1.2.2 Objectives developed for the project
I had the responsibility of the team lead and for the successful delivery of the project I
had set the following goals and objectives:
 To keep the team members on the track of successfully delivery of the project
 To manage the conflicts between the team members
 To present a renewable source of energy for the electricity production
 To utilize the wind energy produced by fast moving vehicles or trains
 To utilize the vibration produced by trains for the production of electricity
CE 1.2.3 My area of work
I was assigned for the setup of the components for the whole system and efficiently lead
the setup for the electricity generation and manage the efficiency of the whole project. I had
divided the team in individual sector of work in which every individual of the team was assigned
to the work according to their interest. I had to monitor and evaluate the whole program after the
establishment of the whole setup. I had also presented the design of the whole system for which
an input was needed that was the wind energy produced by the trains. A turbine was connected in
the sides of the track to rotate the turbine that was connected with the shaft in manner to convert
the mechanical energy into electrical energy. Thereafter I had connected the rectifier. Grid and
the battery in the whole system.
