Abstract: It is widely accepted that the energy we currently use will not be sufficient to fulfil the demands of all people on the globe in the future. As a result, cleaner and more abundant alternative energy sources—which may also take the form of hybrid energy—are needed. Renewable energy sources will undoubtedly become more prominent. Modern civilisations need cheap, plentiful energy to survive; therefore, human civilisation must create sustainable, affordable, and environmentally benign alternative sources of energy. The global energy dilemma may have an efficient solution in the form of wind power. In current state of affairs, the air could seems like insignificant to any or all. However, we tend to all grasp that the planet has shaped up with an uneven surface, which suggests that the sun’s rays could strike this surface with variable intensities at numerous spots on its bumpy surface. This creates an associated degree of unequal heating of the Earth’s surface, which causes variations in atmospheric pressure. Then it leads to wind. The Kinetic energy of these air molecules is nothing but wind energy. A mechanical mechanism known as a wind turbine transforms the kinetic energy present in the air around it into the required form of mechanical energy. In this research, we focused on the repellent qualities of permanently magnetised objects with similar poles. These innate qualities of magnetic propulsion are used here as an energy source. Due to the inclusion of components such as magnetic repulsion, our VAWT system will operate more effectively, even in lower wind speed conditions. These magnets will produce a repulsive force that will add various sorts of kinetic energies to the wind turbines as they convert the wind energy’s kinetic energy into the necessary mechanical power when it’s employed as an extra source of energy in a VAWT.
