CAPTURED AND RECAPTURED ENERGY
Innovation is defined as the “introduction of new things or methods.”
Creative Workshop, CWS.Inc is working on new technologies and the deployment of existing technologies for the purpose of establishing new methods to collect potential energy from our existing transportation systems.
Americans combine to drive over 3 trillion miles annually on more than 4 million miles of roads. This represents an enormous potential energy.
Stand on the side of a busy highway or road. The wind from passing cars and semis will blow you away. The noise of the tires, engines, and the wind is deafening. The ground vibrates under your feet. If you stand there very long the sun will burn your skin.
We are working on the creation of a Green-Way System; a new energy producing component to augment our current highway system. This Green-Way will capture energy created by fossil fuels that is ignored and wasted in large quantities. It will build on the improving performance of solar, wind and vibration collection systems, electricity produced by heat, and package them into efficient and networked roadside collectors.
The top of the unit will have a solar array to capture the solar energy. The collector will include a wind turbine, vibration collectors in the road surface and on panels on the outside of the collector unit, heat capture devices, and an electron exciting collector/generator. The intention would be to utilize and develop as many new technologies as possible, to create an efficient centralized collector, to be placed at key locations and intervals along the current highway system.
Electrical energy can be sent to a storage cell, hooked to a cental substation, or transferred directly to the power company’s existing electrical system. The substation for a group of collectors can also be used as stations for recharging electric car batteries.
A secondary idea, based on the same approach of capturing potential energy from existing industrial/man-made sources is to locate similar collectors adjacent to high volume shopping mall and big box store mechanical units. These units expel tremendous amounts of wind and noise energy, which could be recaptured, and used to feed the energy use of these commercial locations.
The project with the most potential is the roadway project. It has unlimited energy producing possibilities and it is a way for our transportation system to produce green energy. Our country really needs a way out of this fossil fuel dilemma. We need more electrical cars and we need collectors that can produce carbon-free electricity, to charge these batteries.
