Electricity is the fundamental need of human society. Any nation's growth depends on energy. The worldwide electricity consumption increases and conventional electricity sources are causing pollution. Therefore, some non-conventional energy recourses are mandatory to be designed and developed for electricity generation, and they are useful and environment-friendly. In this study, a renewable, non-conventional energy source prototype has been developed, based on the mechanism of power generation from speed breaker with ratchet and pawl mechanism. This study aims to convert the kinetic energy of vehicles into electrical energy which can be used for street and highway lighting and conservation of electrical energy.

Energy generation has seen significant development in recent years. This investigation describes a new technique for generating energy from the waste kinetic energy of the vehicles speed & the practical side we have been able to produce and store electrical energy using the vehicle minimum speed also without any extra cost for the land.If our concept is implementation throughout India, it not only increases the power generation to more than a few gig watts of electricity but also has other various fringe benefits including longer road life, employment generation, reduced CO2 emission in environment.

Electric energy is very important both technologically and economically in today's countries. Countries can generate and consume more energy according to their level of development and the resources they have. In the literature, it is estimated in parallel with the development of countries; there will also be an increase in electrical energy generation and consumption. Similarly, in economies that generate and consume more electricity, it is assumed that this will affect their economic growth. But these assumptions need to be calculated econometrically. This study has been prepared for this purpose. In this study, the relationship between electricity generation, electricity consumption, and economic growth in Turkey was analyzed. In the analysis conducted for the period 1975-2019, the Toda-Yamamoto causality test method was preferred as the method. As a result of the analysis, it was determined that there is a causal relationship from electricity consumption and electricity generation to economic growth, valid for the period 1975-2019 in Turkey.

Flywheel energy storage systems use the kinetic energy stored in a rotor; they are often referred to as mechanical batteries. On charging, the fywheel is accelerated, and on power generation, it is slowed. Because the energy stored is proportional to the square of the speed, very high speeds are used, typically 20,000–100,000 revolutions per minute (rpm). To minimize energy loss due to friction, the rotors are spun in a vacuum and use magnetic bearings. The rotors today are typically made of high-strength carbon composites. One of the main limits to fywheels is the strength of the material used for the rotor: the stronger the rotor, the faster it can be spun, and the more energy it can store.


Sulawesi Selatan is one of the provinces with high amount of electricality consumption. By the high amount of electricity consumption, electrical energy is needed to be provided. To provide the electricity we need the energy source. The river in Madong village, Toraja Utara Regency has the characteristic that potentially can be an energy source. To get the benefit from the Madong river, we need the study of designing and economic analysis. From analyzed data of the selected flood discharge (Q100) to be 488.55 m3 .s-1 and the selected plant discharge (Q40) to be 13.18 m3 .s-1 . This hydropower was designed with a concrete and circle-shaped weir. There are the other components such as intake, feeder canal, settling basin, volume, headrace, fore bay and penstock. The penstock is using the welded steel material, with 2 m of diameter and 12 mm of thickness. Then, there is a tailrace that will transmit the water back to the river. The selected turbines are 2 units of Francis type, with the 12.59 MW power produced and 68.92 GWh energy produced in a year. The result of economic analysis, the project is feasible with BCR 1.29, NPV 135 Billion rupiahs, IRR 12.68%, and Payback period within 15.43 years.

The use of solar energy today as an alternative energy source continues to be used not only in large scale but also utilized on small scale. The use of solar power as a renewable energy source by converting solar energy into electrical energy, utilizing this technology one of them on technology using hydroponic plant systems. In hydroponic pump system used to consume water and nutrients are usually sourced electricity PLN. With the availability of abundant energy sources certainly help reduce electricity consumption from PLN. The design is done on this research by utilizing solar energy as a power supply to turn on the pumps as well as to drain water and plant nutrients running well. The burden used in this study was 20Watt, to supply the load needs of a PLTS fitted with polycristaline type. The highest irradiation at 12.00 is 666 W/M2 which means that at that time the energy is generated maximally. In the design used with the battery capacity using the VRLA Deep Cycle JS12-12 battery type; 12V 12Ah generated and stored electrical energy can turn the 5-6 hour pump on.

This paper is regarding the reduction in the cost of electricity generation. This is achieved by using the proposed new mechanics/mechanism/machines as an intermediate, in the process of converting the source energy (Both Conventional Sources of Energy and Non-Conventional Sources of Energy, mainly solar energy and thermal energy from waste or the electricity itself) to electrical energy at truncated charge.

This project is intended to design one kind of automatically reciprocating pedal-powered electricity generator (ARPPEG) in conjunction with the management and control over harvesting the kinetic energy, electricity generation, the electricity storage and the output of electricity. According to the operation testing results, this system has been proved to effective in power generation. In view of the simple structure and low-costs of this system without territory and time limits, the application of ARPPEG designed by us could open a new path to saving the energy and helping build a new energy society.

Municipal solid waste (MSW) is generated from human activities, where most of them end up at the landfill. The landfill gas produced from the degradation of organic matter in the MSW landfill contains methane can be used as the energy source. Therefore, the objective of this research is to analyze the potential of landfill gas as an alternative for energy source. Two Landfill Simulator Reactor (LSRs) made of high density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe has 50 cm outside diameter and 150 cm of height were operated under natural condition. The first LSR was operated without leachate recirculation (A), while the other one was operated with leachate recirculation (B). Results of this research found the highest methane concentration from LSR A was about 53% and 41.8% from LSR B. This finding was applied to estimate the landfill gas production for electricity generation in Cot Padang Nila landfill. The potential electrical energy that could be produced from Cot Padang Nila landfill is 203 MWh/year if it is operated using LSR A mode, and 161 MWh/year when operated in accordance to LSR B mode. This amounts of energy is suitable to provide electricity for 53-67 households in the vicinity of the landfill.

Abstract— Electrical energy has become one of the basic needs at this time. The more population, the more electricity consumption is needed. so it takes a lot of innovation to support those needs. Energy harvesting system is one of them, by using piezoelectricity, we can harvest electrical energy. This tool works by changing the kinetic energy of the human footing which is then converted to produce electrical energy. In use, when it runs normally on this prototype the influence of the elasticity of the materials present in this prototype will cause vibrations and give effect to the piezoelectric sensor. Then the vibrations detected by piezoelectric will respond to the kinetic energy produced. This kinetic energy is produced from human footing which can be converted into other forms of energy according to energy conversion. Energy utilization is carried out by storing the energy output from the piezoelectric into the battery (recharge), which then by using a voltage sensor and Bluetooth module HC-05 will be monitored and data will be sent to the cellphone so that the piezoelectric output voltage can be recorded and monitored. Keywords : Piezoelectric, Battery, Voltage Sensor, Bluetooth HC-05. Abstrak— Energi listrik sudah menjadi salah satu kebutuhan pokok saat ini.
