Sustainable Cities & Communities
What is the problem you found?
According to UN Habitat, 60% of greenhouse gas emissions are produced by cities.
What is your opportunity?
How might we reduce the amount of gas emissions generated by cities?
Who is your audience?
This idea will help cities who want easier ways to build renewable energy into designs.
What Is Your Solution?
Use kinetic energy generated by people walking and driving over pads on the ground as a renewable energy source to power our cities or store for later use.
The energy is generated through kinetic pressure. This pressure comes from people walking on/driving on pads on the ground which, when pressurised, generate kinetic energy.
