The importance of socialization about alternative energy that can be used for daily needs, for example from the simplest such as lighting at home, although not permanent but is very useful in the event of a sudden power outage. The high price of electricity makes small communities have to think twice as much to regulate daily expenditure needs so as to encourage to find alternative energy that can produce electricity that is environmentally friendly. Seeing the large number of detergent products in Indonesia, it inspires to process the waste from laundry clothes or other objects and even the detergent water itself, because so far the used laundry waste is thrown away so that it can pollute the environment. The purpose of this study is to reduce the effect of environmental pollution due to used laundry waste which is used as an alternative energy source to turn on lighting lamps at home or even on the road. The method used in this research is a chemical or electrolysis reaction involving zinc and carbon as well as the content in detergent washing water. From several experiments conducted for 3 detergents with several parameters, namely the amount of mass and water volume of 120 ml. From the experiment the voltage is 1 volt with a current of 2 mA for detergent Rinso, for DAIA detergent the voltage is 0.7 and current is 0.56 mA, and the experiments tested on SOKLIN produce a voltage of 0.8 volt and a current of 1 mA. Whereas the testing which was carried out randomly with a volume of 1200 ml water produced a voltage of 0.547 v with a large current of 0.006 mA. This proves that detergent waste can be utilized as a renewable energy although it still requires further research but this can ease the burden on the community to pay for electricity from PLN and in the subsequent development independent power plants are built in each house so that the community can save on electricity.

This article contributes to the research on the expansion of the Swedish post-war road network by illuminating the role of tourism in addition to political and industrial agendas. Specifically, it examines the “conceptual construction” of the Blue Highway, which currently stretches from the Atlantic Coast of Norway, traverses through Sweden and Finland, and enters into Russia. The focus is on Swedish governmental reports and national press between the 1950s and the 1970s. The article identifies three overlapping meanings attached to the Blue Highway: a political agenda of improving the relationships between the Nordic countries, industrial interests, and tourism. Political ambitions of Nordic community building were clearly pronounced at the onset of the project. Industrial actors depended on the road for the building of power plants and dams. The road became gradually more connected with the view of tourism as the motor of regional development.

The whole world is now running after green energy. The utilization of energy is an indication of the growth of a nation. Maximum consumed energy comes from conventional energy sources like gas, oil, coal, etc. which are limited. It is difficult to meet up the demand with existing conventional energy resources. So, green energy or alternative energy can be the best way to meet increased demand today. Electricity can be produced from the speed breaker which is considered an alternative energy source of power generation. In our country, the speed breaker is about 10 cm in height. Thousands of vehicles run over the road every day which provides huge pressure on the road. A system could be developed to have about 10 cm defection with huge downward pressure energy which would be used to rotate wells turbines by using compressed air. The enormous study had been carried out to improve power generation from speed breaker by using the rack & pinion method and compressed air. But none of the studies is carried out by using wells turbines from compressed air. In our research, a small model has been constructed. From the experimental data, it is seen that an average 500 N Load can give an output of 1V voltage / 0.7A current / 1.71 kWh power. This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium provided the original work is properly cited.

Speed bump adalah mekanisme yang dipasang pada jalan untuk mengurangi laju kendaraan dengan tujuan keamanan. Pada penelitian ini dikembangkan sebuah speed bump yang memiliki fungsi ganda, yaitu mengurangi laju kendaraan dan sebagai pembangkit daya. Sistem pembangkit daya terdiri dari pasangan roda gigi, poros, roda gila, pegas, rantai dan kumparan generator. Prototipe kemudian diuji pada tingkat kecepatan yang bervariasi. Besar voltase dan arus yang dibangkitkan diukur. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan untuk massa pengendara 400 kg dan variasi kecepatan kendaraan 5 km/jam, 10 km/jam, dan 15 km/jam, dihasilkan tegangan 18 Voltase dan menghasilkan arus sebesar 0.27 ampere. Hasil yang dicapai ini masih kecil, sehingga mendorong peneliti memperbaiki desain stasiun listrik speed bump generasi ke-2. Speed bump is a mechanism that is installed on the road to reduce the speed of the vehicle with safety objectives. In this study a speed bump that has a dual function was developed, namely reducing the speed of the vehicle and as a power plant. The power generation system consists of pairs of gears, shafts, flywheels, springs, chains and generator coils. The prototype is then tested at varying speed levels. The voltage and current generated are measured. The test results show for the mass of the driver 400 kg and variations in vehicle speed 5 km / h, 10 km / h, and 15 km / h, voltage 18 voltage is generated and produces a current of 0.27 amperes. The results achieved are still small, prompting researchers to improve the design of the 2nd generation speed bump electric station.

The aim of this paper is to investigate households’ willingness to adopt technological and behavioral energy savings measures, in their dwellings and for daily mobility. Based on the evidence that occupants’ behavior has a major impact on energy uses at home and on the road, this paper aims at investigating which determinants influence household preferences for energy-saving measures, both technical as well as behavioral ones, as well as highlighting the key determinants for adopting energy-savings measures, at the household scale. This paper will attempt to shed more light on the factors that may bridge the intention–behavior gap. The analysis is based on an empirical survey carried out in the Netherlands. Main results show that (1) behavioral energy saving measures are more acceptable than technical ones; (2) the adoption of energy savings measures at home is more likely than on the road; (3) there is a relatively small market for technical energy measures, especially through the initial investment and the low return on investment; (4) environmental aspects seem to be more important for relatively expensive technical energy measures; (5) the reason for taking technological energy measures is rather to be found in differences among socio-demographic background than in environmental concerns; and (6) comfort at home and on the road is an important explanatory variable that many respondents used to justify not implementing energy savings measures and should be investigated in further research.
