Pavegen has introduced a new system that converts the energy of movement into electricity, creating interactive and eco-friendly spaces. The basis of the technology is a special tile that activates when pressed and converts mechanical movement into rotational energy, powering a built-in generator.
The power of one module is 35 watts, and the accumulated electricity can be used to power various devices. According to the company, Pavegen has already implemented over 300 projects in 37 countries. The system is capable of integrating into public spaces such as music festivals and real estate objects, creating the possibility to produce energy while engaging visitors in the process.
The technology is being tested at music events: during Coldplay's world tour and Heineken's interactive installation, concert participants could create electricity and music through their movements, transforming kinetic energy into a real-time effect.
Other innovative developments in the energy sector
It is worth noting that researchers at the Helmholtz Centre for Geological Sciences have discovered that areas within mountain ranges where deep mantle rocks are close to the surface are promising sites for natural hydrogen production.
Singapore startup Flint has developed paper batteries that promise to be a cheaper, safer, and more environmentally friendly alternative to lithium-ion batteries. British engineers have launched the world's first engine powered by liquid nitrogen.
Pavegen has launched a new system that allows the conversion of movement energy into electrical energy, creating interactive and eco-friendly spaces. This technology is already being successfully used in public places around the world, providing the opportunity to produce energy and engage the public in active participation in this process.
