A REVIEW ON GRAVITY BATTERIES

Electrical and Electronics Engineering

A low-cost gadget is created that can capture the energy of an object falling due to gravity. Through the placement of a high strength nylon thread at a specific height, an object is suspended from the apparatus. An item put at a specific height experiences gravitational potential energy, which is transformed into kinetic energy. The wheel, which is linked with a gear train, revolves as the object drops. The pinion positioned on the generator shaft is further rotated by this gear train. At the generator's armature terminals, an electrical output is generated that is adequate for a variety of uses. This system transforms mechanical energy generated by a person into gravitational potential energy, which is then transformed into electrical energy. This gadget can be utilized wherever on Earth regardless of location, weather conditions, time, and fuel because nearly all renewable energy sources have limited applications due to their operational requirements. The gadget has the ability to take the role of chemical batteries used in solar street lighting and can also be utilized as a mechanical battery. The constructed prototype is prepared for use in field applications
