Damascus, SANA- With the aim of searching for new sources of electrical energy production, student Alaa Nassar designed a technology implemented on floors that converts kinetic and mechanical energy into electrical energy by walking on foot.
The young man Nassar, who continued his studies at the Technical Institute for Solar Energy at Tartous University told SANA that he used both kinetic and mechanical energy to generate electrical energy by walking on foot through the design and composition of a floor used in public and private places crowded with people.
Nassar explained that the principle of the technology’s operation depends on pressure on the mechanical body as any person passes over this floor, after which the electrical energy is produced, the greater the number of passers-by, the greater the production of electricity.
Nassar pointed out that a single step when walking generates approximately 3 watts of electricity, which can be stored in batteries whose storage is proportional to the number of passers-by and the area on which the project is implemented, in addition to connecting them to inverters to raise the voltage and use them upon request.
