POWER GENRATION THROUGH ROLLING MECHANISM AND AUTOMATION

Electronics Engineering

Now a day’s, power has become basic need for human life. Energy is responsible for major developments of a country’s economy. Conventional energy sources generate most of the energy of today’s world. But the population is increasing day by day and the conventional energy sources are diminishing. Moreover, these conventional energy sources are polluting and responsible for global warming. So, there is a need for saving energy and requires an alternate energy source which is available and feasible. This paper explores the concept of utilizing the rotational motion of rolling objects, such as vehicles, to capture and convert mechanical energy into electrical power. We studied, a renewable non-conventional energy source based on speed breaker mechanism. Our project aim is to enlighten the streets by making use of the energy which is wasted during the vehicles passes over speed breaker. In metro cities, the number of vehicles increases gradually. We can tap the energy generated by moving vehicles and produce power by using the speed breaker as power generating unit. Replacing normal speed breaker with this simple mechanism, the kinetic energy of the moving vehicles can be converted into mechanical energy and this mechanical energy will be converted to electrical energy using generator which will be used for lighting the street lights, power station, automation of drip irrigation, digital display on road side. Therefore, by using this mechanism we can save lot of energy which can fulfill our future demands.
