Abstract :
In order to meet the future electricity demand without harming the environment, it is necessary to focus more on renewable energy and unconventional sources for electricity generation. The utilization of waste energy can also be helpful for reducing dependence on conventional sources for electricity generation. In this paper, the electricity generation by utilizing the kinetic energy of moving vehicles over speed breaker is presented. The proposed system is designed to extract the kinetic energy of moving vehicles which converts into mechanical energy through rack and pinion mechanism. The mechanical energy drives the shaft which acts as prime mover for DC generator. A proto type model of the proposed system has presented in this paper which needs modification for large scale electricity generation.
