Powering the Future...
One Step at a Time
By: Hannah Wolf, Danh Vu, Elena Duggan and Teal Dulcet
Air
- According to the Union of Concerned Scientists, coal generates almost half of our electricity and is the biggest cause of air pollution in the U.S.
- Fossil fuels that are burned to create electricity release carbon emmisions into the air.
- Finding an alternative method to power something that most people use on a daily basis reduces the need for electricity.
Fire
- Flame are use to heat up water to created steam, the steam then rotate the turbine to make electricity
- Flame create smoke which then release into the atmosphere
- With our idea there is no need to use flame which lead to less smoke releasing into atmosphere
Electricity Consumption
5 Elements
Earth
- Fossil fuels are used for electricity production
- Destroy the environment and contribute to climate change
- Our idea would help eliminate the need of fossil fuels for energy production
Metal
- Metal is an energy conductor
- Coal that is stored outside of power plants contains heavy metals such as arsenic and lead
- Heavy metals can be flushed from the coal due to rainfall
- This discharge then flows into nearby bodies of water, contaminating them
- In 2010, the United States consumed 3,886,400,000 watt hours
- With a population of 316,090,000 people, that's about 1,400 per person
- Our lives have begun to revolve around electricity without us even realizing
- Think back to 24 Hour Project
Water
- 40% of coal factories in the United States use wet-recirculation
- water is also used to rinse lower quality coal to reduce impurities
- Reducing energy waste can greatly reduce the need for coal, which in turn reduces the need for water pollution
Shoes Design
Our Project
- A shoe insert that charges a battery while one walks.
- Our project will harness a currently untapped source of kinetic energy.
- The Battery can charge electronic devices such as cell phones, tablets and MP3 players.
- Reduces electricity use from conventional sources and save money.
