lets forget about solar energy for a second because this new alternative energy source is..... A rarely known device that uses "Ambient Vibration Energy"... and turns it into free electricity... so you can fully eliminate your power bill for life! This is true stuff we even have videos for all you non believers check it out.
This free source of electricity comes from piezoelectric energy harvesting. Any vibration based energy harvester can be primarily divided into three parts.
The first part consists of the power generator module which converts the ambient
mechanical energy into an electrical equivalent energy. The second part is the
power processor module that effectively processes the converted energy into a
form of DC power. The final module is the power storage architecture which
stores the generated power into a battery or a capacitor efficiently for application
specific end use.
The fundamental concept for piezoelectric energy harvesting involves a
piezoelectric layer attached to a vibrating mechanical structure that converts the
strain energy into induced electric charge. A miniature portable energy harvesting unit that is made up of a composite beam that consists of a cantilever shim with an attached piezoelectric layer and a proof mass at its end. The device when directly attached to a vibrating surface, places the whole structure in an accelerating frame of reference. The proof mass essentially converts the input base acceleration into
an effective inertial force at the tip that deflects the beam, thereby inducing
mechanical strain in the piezoelectric layer. This strain produces an effective
voltage in the layer that is converted into usable power with the help of a power
processor. I have found a guide that anyone can use to build free electric generators,small and large.
