Stair Energy Generator (SEG)

post-image

Over 45 countries experience ten or more power outages per year, with Bangladesh experiencing 248 a year, and over 70% of consumed energy per year is either Coal, Oil, or natural gas. The world needs cleaner energy, which can be easily built/installed in any country. This has led me to design a product that can capture wasted energy through the action of traversing a set of stairs and store it for later use.

To assist in the development of this project, advice/support in energy generation (piezoelectric, electromagnetic generator, electric motor, Triboelectric Nanogenerators), Material research, electronics (energy storage), and Mechanical Engineering.

A great idea Bowie. We humans can make such a difference if we just placed smart ideas in front of every day actions.. like walking up the steps.

This is well out of my area of expertise, but the amazing engineering students at the Central Queensland University would love to tackle this one.. 'advice/support in energy generation (piezoelectric, electromagnetic generator, electric motor, Triboelectric Nanogenerators), Material research, electronics (energy storage), and Mechanical Engineering'. Let me see if I can help connect you.
