Highways

Independently of overpasses, TDWGs can be installed every 20 to 30 feet on dedicated mounting structures as are normally used to mount Interstate highway informational signs. The output from these units can power rest stops, roadside lighting, digital Amber Alert signs, or be sent to the local grid in what is commonly called a "Community Wind Microgrid" program. The most suitable overpass candidates will be oriented to capture the local ambient / prevailing wind. To increase efficiency, these units can be installed on both directions of highway near a rest stop, so that cable runs are kept short, and electrical resistance is kept to a minimum.
