1. A wind turbine powered compressed air based propulsion system for transporting resources, said system comprising:
a tube comprising an airflow control valve configured to enable speed of airflow;
a wind turbine comprising a wind turbine fan and a piston, wherein the wind turbine fan controls the piston to create compressed air for propelling a plurality of cars through said tube;
a plurality of tracks configured to carry said plurality of cars;
a processor configured to determine a route for said plurality of cars on said plurality of tracks based on one or more pre-defined parameters;
a plurality of electronically controlled stations configured to facilitate one or more task on said routed plurality of cars for transportation of resources; and
a turnable loop configured to rotate for allowing a car of said plurality of cars to enter a hub from a first track of said plurality of tracks and exit the hub from a second track of said plurality of tracks, wherein said processor is further configured to:
allocate a portion of time to each pair of stations among said plurality of electronically controlled stations, wherein
each station of said plurality of stations is associated with a respective location, and
each pair of stations includes a source station and a destination station;
determine whether a car of said plurality of cars is at the source station and destined to the destination station within the allocated portion of time; and
reject said car from insertion to the source station based on the determination that said car is not destined to the destination station within the allocated portion of time.
