Everything what happens in the surrounding is the expression of flow of energy in one ofthe forms. But in this fast moving world, population is increasing day by day and the conventional energy sources are lessening. The extensive usage of energy has resulted in an energy crisis over the few years. Therefore to overcome this problem we need to implement the techniques of optimal utilization of conventional sources for conservation of energy. This project includes how to utilize the energy which is wasted when the vehicles passes over a speed breaker. Lots of energy is generated when vehicle passes over it. There are four mechanisms to generate electricity through speed breakers viz., Rack & Pinion mechanism, Crank Shaft mechanism, Roller mechanism and Spring Coal mechanism. We can tap the energy generated and produce power by using the speed breaker as power generating unit. The kinetic energy of the moving vehicles can be converted into mechanical energy of the shaft through rack and pinion mechanism or some other mechanism; Included Appendix, Bibliography and Index ER -
