Abstract :
Electrical energy is most vital source for growth of any nation, which keeps the progress on wheels. The growth of any nation depends on per capita consumption of electrical energy. Unfortunately the resources of electrical energy are depleting day by day hence, the gap between demand and generation is increasing. To bridge this gap alternative non conventional methods have to be adopted. The work proposed in this paper is non conventional micro level electricity generation for parking lot and outdoor lighting requirements. In the proposed methodology electrical energy is generated by vehicular movement. To prove this concept practically, a pilot module is developed. The mechanism works with a wire loaded semi automated electromechanical structure with a PMDC (Permanent Magnet Direct Current) machine which is aimed to generate energy whenever a vehicle moves on this mechanism. The generated electrical energy in packets is stored in a battery through battery charging circuit.
