  • Pavegen Systems Energy Genrating Pavement
    Any one point on a busy street can receive up to <b>50,000</b> steps a day, so imagine if you could take all that foot traffic and turn it into something useful - like energy! A new product designed by Laurence Kemball-Cook, the director of Pavegen Systems Ltd., can do just that. With a minuscule flex of 5mm, the energy generating pavement is able to absorb the kinetic energy produced by every footstep, creating 2.1 watts of electricity per hour.
