1. An apparatus for generating power, the apparatus comprising:

  • a first loop configured to be deployed from a portion of a vehicle;

    a first plurality of resistive devices coupled to the first loop, at least one resistive device of the first plurality of resistive devices being configured to transfer a force to the first loop, the force being generated based on an aerodynamic drag associated with the at least one resistive device;

    a pulley coupled to the first loop, the pulley being configured to receive the force transferred to the first loop, and the pulley being further configured to rotate in response to receiving the force from the first loop; and

    a generator coupled to the pulley, the generator being coupled to an electrical system, and the generator being further configured to deliver power to the electrical system in response to the pulley rotating.
