INDIA – Imagine this: you get into your electric car, drive through the city, on the highway, or get stuck in traffic… and even then, the battery recharges itself. No plugs, no charging stations, no planning stops. It sounds crazy, but it’s already a reality. And the most surprising part is that it doesn’t come from Silicon Valley or any European lab, but from India.

Its creator

It is not Tesla, it is not Toyota. The person who is behind this creation is Professor Satyam Kumar Jha. This man has developed an automatic charging system based on wind energy, something never seen or thought for the moment! For us, it is an incredible brain! And wait, because the best part is that it works even when the car is moving slowly, UnionRayo reports.

How can a car charge while it’s moving?

The key lies in a compact wind generator that turns moving air into electricity. But don’t picture a giant turbine stuck to the car. This system was designed to work with very light winds, which makes it perfect for city driving or for those days when you don’t go over 30 km/h.

Thanks to that, the vehicle’s battery receives energy in real time, whether you’re on the open road, driving through the city, or waiting at a traffic light.

Advantages over traditional electric cars

One of the biggest headaches with electric cars is still charging. Not enough stations, too slow, risk of getting stranded… With this system, all of that disappears. Literally.

  • Unlimited range: Since the car charges as it moves, you don’t need to think about how much battery you have left or look for the next plug.
  • Lower costs: No more paying to recharge. The energy is generated on the go, so usage costs drop instantly.
  • Almost zero environmental impact: No fuel, no external power. Just air and movement. So the carbon footprint is kept to a minimum.

An invention born in India (and that’s no coincidence)

Ok, let’s explain this. This project didn’t come out of a big innovation centre or of a big brand as we have said before, and of course, it doesn’t have either the investment backing of an important company.

It was created by a physicist in Maharashtra, with the help of his wife, Preeti Jha. Both, working side by side for a better future. Together, they want to change the world by turning a practical idea into real life.

And that is exactly what makes this experiment so powerful: this technology could make a difference in cities, but, think for a moment in those rural areas or places where electricity is more than a problem, this is a realistic solution for those who need it most, don’t you think?

What now?

Ok, lets go part by part, it is still in the process of commercial expansion (for the moment), its creators are looking for partners who want to take the idea further. Investors, manufacturers, governments… whoever wants to join this revolution is welcome…

As Jha himself said “We’re on the edge of an energy revolution. This innovation is not an experiment, it’s a solution ready to change industries and lives”

A new era of transport?

Could be, don’t? This self-charging car could be the start of something much incredible and bigger: a truly autonomous form of mobility, with no plugs, no cables and no external dependence! If the system scales up and is applied to more vehicles, we might be looking at a new category of transport.

Can you imagine never having to plug in your car again? What a dream! But maybe that’s no longer just imagining. It’s already happening in India!
