Electricity from National Highway


This time it is physics – not that Einstein level physics, but just tenth standard physics. An old technology of generating electricity using a magnet and coil, but every engineer and scientist around me has missed a major opportunity to use it in a very practical and wide spread way!

The idea is very simple. We are going to build a big, long toroidal coil tunnel along with the major roads where there are considerable amount of traffic. The road will be passing through the center of this tunnel. The tunnel will be made of insulated copper winding. Refer the figure.

Hei, what are you going to do with this? Answer: We are going to frame a new rule and put it under 9th Schedule of the constitution (Because we don't want the faith of helmet rule, speed limiter rule, involvement of court, petition, law....etc to our new rule). The rule states that, every vehicle must be fixed with a fixed magnet which weighs in proportional to the weight of the vehicle (small vehicles will carry small magnet, big vehicles will carry big magnet). The magnet must be aligned in such a way that, when the vehicle moves through the road made of the coil tunnel, a certain amount of electricity must be inducted on the coil.

Now start using the brain! When a vehicle carrying a magnet moves inside a coil, what will happen? We will get electricity in the coil! And when every vehicle in a busy road does the same, what will happen? We will get lot of electricity!

As the left side of my brain says, we need one way roads with two separate coils for each direction to avoid the cancellation effect due to the traffic in both directions (Sounds confusing? Read it again with slow speed).

All our issues related to power must be solved now! With no worries of getting rain! With no worries of dam collapses! With no worries of petroleum supply! With no worries of nuclear radiation! With no worries of naphtha prices! With no worries of environmental issues! A full stop for load shedding and power cuts!

I am sure this will give a boost to industry and thus economy. If my calculations are correct, GDP should grow by another 20 percent.

Don't you agree with me?

Hi, sir.
I think this is a best idea but it wont work on indian roads.
=>coz many humps and pit in the roads and even lot of mud on the roads.
So,
when the vehicle moves which is carrying magnet,we need to think about the height adjustment of ground level and the chasis level . and also we need to keep on cleaning the magnet every movement (this is main thing).

coz where as the vehicle moves on the road small iron particle which looks like a dust will stick on to the magnet ,which may decrease the magnet sencitivity, and that sticked iron particle will become a big garbage , that will also be a big head ache than getting power from this.

Sir ,
i have one idea to generate electricity,at very low cost.
ie;
=>create a pit behind the toilet,like how we create to generate a gobar gas from cow dung.
=>store the produced gas.
=>this produced gas can be used for either cooking purpose oror for bathing (boil water),room heater,or if it is used for steam boiler from their making turbines to rotate , like this way power can be generated.

=>if we adopt both solar and gobar gas , we can use solar at summer time and gobar at winter time , this we can implement in a village level where the villagers are facing problem with electricity..
