Energy Generating Speed Bumps Get Green Light in London
Moving vehicles will generate electricity for street lights and road signs in a London trial.
“Green” speed bumps that will generate electricity as cars drive over them are to be introduced on Britain’s roads. The hi-tech “sleeping policemen” will power street lights, traffic lights and road signs in a pilot scheme in London that could be rolled out nationwide.
Speed bumps have long been the bane of motorists’ lives, but these will capture the kinetic energy of vehicles.
