A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
An energy generating road with a pipe system 19 underneath a road surface 3 which is connected to low 2 and high 1 level reservoirs and hydro turbines 8 wherein movement of a vehicle over the road surface 3 pumps water from the low level reservoir 2 to the high level one 1 to be able to produce energy on demand through the hydro-turbines. The system may employ a peristaltic pump, fixed stroke bellows or a fixed stroke cylinder pump. Aqueducts or water towers may also be provided as part of the power generation arrangement. The system may use oil and have filtering and cooling arrangements.
