PAVEGEN 

Pavegen Systems is a technology company that has developed paving slabs to convert energy from people's footsteps into small amounts of electrical power.

Pavegen is a human-powered, floor tile that captivates the mind & imagination of anyone that steps on it, by providing clean, off-grid electricity. Use this unique source of electricity to power applications such as monitors and lighting and inspire better decisions.

Pavegen can be used to enhance the well-being of citizens in cities, influence decisions in busy destinations such as transport hubs, sports stadia, venues, and retail outlets and enhance learning outcomes in the education sector.





Pavegen in green transportation industry

Transportation industry not only involve moving transport but also the station, tunnel and more. Pavegen can be incorporate in the transportation industry by replacing old tiles with Pavegen tiles, especially to build a building like warehouse, bus station and terminal.

This is because in this places there are a lot of people that walking to board their train or bus, so it the perfect place to put the Pavegen. The amount of people that walking will replace the use of non-renewable energy to renewable energy by using people movement or kinetic energy.

Other than that, it can be use in bus stop to generate energy for the light and more.


Pavegen is already widely use in transportation indutry especially in pedestrian walkside.

HOW PAVEGEN WORK



The picture above show how Pavegen works:

1.  1.  When there are people step on the tiles completed with pavegen tiles.

2.   2. The weight from the people will stimulate the technology in the pavement

3.  3.  The weight will transform to energy such as electric.

4.  4.  Kinetic energy to electric energy.

  Improvements to public transport services will be made across Canberra with more direct connections for rapid and local services between Town Centers and changes to timings across the 7-day network. The network update will commence in Term 2 2020. “In April 2019 the Government introduced a new transport network with 21% more weekday services and 10 rapid routes,” said Minister for Transport, Chris Steel. “With more frequent services, more Canberrans have been using public transport, with a 7.1% increase in journeys in the last quarter compared with the previous year. “The ACT Government has always said that we would monitor the operation of the new network, listen to feedback, and make changes where necessary. “During the first 6 months of operations we’ve been listening to the community and analyzing the transport data. “The Government has listened to issues raised, and we’re making changes to the bus network to encourage even more people to use public transp...

  Green Transportation Policy News      The National Transport Policy 2019-2030 (NTP 2019-2030) which was recently launched by Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad is set to cater to Malaysia's transportation needs into the future. According to government statistics, carbon emission in the transport sector is largely from land transport, constituting 90 per cent or 48,200 ktonne and 67 per cent is from cars. Thus among the main objectives is to ensure efficient and sustainable use of resources and minimise environmental pollution. With the nation's total carbon emission cited at 7.9 tonne/capita (based on 2011 statistics) it is no wonder that environmental protection is highlighted as one of the main anchors of this holistic vision. While the nation needs to stay competitive and serve the logistic needs of businesses, organisations and its people, the NTP 2019 - 2030 addresses the shift towards environmentally sustainable transport via several strategie...
