Yet wind turbines proved contextually hazardous (uneven relief, noise, structure...) & photovoltaic recycling is questioned. So here greenhouses cover the south-north carriageway, these floating rivers aspirate air on east side & heat it up through solar radiation.
On west side rises a wind torrent, the greenhouse chimney. A whirlwind effect is generated by specific flaps, chimney profile & Coriolis force. Venturi effect emphasizes acceleration as the chimney narrows up to vanish in the crest, where turbines collect energy.
Whirlwind dynamics initiated in chimney basis ensure high productivity, water bed & refractory slab enable inertia to get a constant operating process.
Along viaducts are also set trough mirrors. Propelled by their radiation focusing, thermal oil reaches heat exchangers. Steam then crosses turbines before condensation in a ground circuit heating up the floating river.
