What is kinetic roads? ●This technique is also called road power generation(RPG) ●A method of generating electricity by harnessing the kinetic energy of automobles that drive over the ramp. ●In June 2009, one of the devices was installed in the car park at a Sainsbury's supermarket in Gloucester, United Kingdom, where it provides enough electricity to run all of the store's cash registers. The ramp was invented by Peter Hughes, an electrical and mechanical engineer who is employed by Highway Energy Systems Ltd.

●The company says that under normal traffic conditions, the apparatus will produce 30 kW of electricity. ●Italian startup Underground Power is exploring the potential of kinetic energy in roadways. It has developed a technology called Lybra.
5
Working principle ●Converting kinetic energy and waste energy to electrical energy. ●done by moving plate installed on the road, this plate captured very small movement from the road surfaces and it transferred to a keyway flywheel system. ●The captured energy is converted into electricity which is fed into power grid.
