Make the tunnel parabolic in shape.

And cover it with reflective mirrors that will focus sunlight onto a furnace.

In the furnace heat mercury, lead, or some other material to 4000i C using sunlight.

Then use the superheated liquid to boil water and turn giant steam generators.

The big problem: The wind doesn't always flow the same direction...And it would rarely follow the movement of the Sun.
