OBJECTIVE:
India our country is still a developing nation. Every developing country in this world should concentrate more on their resources they use. Mostly the have to care about the depleting non-renewable resources. But they should also have an eye on their on going energy needs to satisfy their energy thirsty industries which require more energy for their production. The governing body of country could not have any compromise with energy consuming industries because they are elemental blocks for a country’s growth. Industries form a major share of Indian revenue and prestigious outgrowth of our land. Hence energy can be also tapped using special construction from renewable sources like solar, wind, hydropower etc., but the most disadvantage in using renewable sources is that the cost of initiation is huge which are not preferred to cheaper electricity. Also cost set the draw back as the servicing of the equipment or the failure of a component requires more cost for replacing. Though this amount may be more affordable by large-scale industries or concerns. But they never mind about this as they mostly eye only on moneymaking and for huge profits. They treat those ideas of using the alternative renewable energy as a extra effort that may bring down the companies profits and just pulls it off. So this is the situation prevailing in India, ‘Indian energy production is very less which are mostly used by industries and residential. So only meagre amount is left in for any sort of developmental activities. From this less amount of energy left it, can’t be wasted simply.’ Alternatively by using of natural forces and phenomenon we can generate artificial electric power without fossils and these renewable energy can be used in developmental activities. This will help in complete replacing of fossil electricity by generated electricity. This may save the renewable electric power, which can be used by the future generations and industries, which could provide revenue status. The point to highlight is that ”how we can replace the routine electric power we consume, by the artificial or generated power?”
The answer to this is not very far in this modern world. There could be a gradual replacement soon offered. But the complete growth as a whole can’t be done in a single day. A step-by-step replacement would change the whole process one day. As we the Engineering students we offer a one such solution of replacing the fossil power by the generated power. The plot for what we have worked with also saves manpower, which is automation that requires no labour in its feature. The whole setup works on the generated power, which doesn’t require any non-renewable electric power. We have not provided the complete replacement of power for whole of the fossil power, wherever it is used. But here our work’s objective is to minimize only the additional energy spent in the railway gates with the generative power with high safety ness than manual labour. Traffic is one such another issue that happens at each level crossing due to stopping the vehicle flows because of train’s arrival. We handle this issue big and have done our best to reduce the traffic at gates. The solution we gave will reduce the traffic congestion to one fourth of its present traffic. This we could say just because we have employed the gate’s working based on each train’s speed.
