clipped from www.ecogeek.org
of the most bountiful manmade kinetic energy out there – the movement of cars,
trains and planes over roads, rails and runways. The idea is simple – stick a
piezoelectric generator under the road. Innowattech claims that 1 km of
piezoelectric highway could generate 500 kilowatts (that’s 0.8 MW per mile, for
those of you keeping score at home).
