Road Energy, a novel power system that converts vehicles’ kinetic energy to electrical energy. Unlike similar inventions, EWD’s innovative hydraulic mechanism generates uninterrupted electrical energy with no disturbances to drivers, making it a potential game-changer.
Road Energy is based on piezoelectric energy harvesting with machine learning techniques. Converters harness kinetic energy from cars in motion, collecting the max output for each vehicle according to its mass and weight. Energy is transmitted from the converters to a central unit via an innovative hydraulic system. Customers include high volume areas eg. ports, airports, hospitals, schools, toll stations.
Unlike similar inventions,
EWD’s innovative hydraulic mechanism generates uninterrupted electrical energy with no disturbances to drivers as it does not require special road ramps, speed reduction or other disruptions of drivers’ experience.
- Units installed in high volume areas collect hitherto untapped kinetic energy to produce uninterrupted electrical energy.
- A single unit can generate 80.000-100.00kWh/year.
- Its monitoring mechanism can monitor traffic and road temperature and contribute to safer and more sustainable mobility.
