  • Abstract
    This paper explores a relatively less popular source of clean energy. Noise (sound) energy can be converted into viable source of electric power by using a suitable transducer. This can be done by using a transducer by converting vibrations caused by noise into electrical energy. An application is proposed for the same, in which a speaker and a transformer are used to convert noise produced by car horn into electrical energy. The vibrations created by noise can be converted into electrical energy through the principle of electromagnetic induction. The received signal was stepped up using a transformer. A similar setup was placed at distance of 1 meter from the exhaust pipe of a 350 cubic centimeter engine of a motorbike. The demonstrated ideas probe into a clean and readily available source of energy.
