What is Kinetic Roads: Harnessing Energy from Traffic about?

This document describes kinetic roads, which generate electricity by harnessing the kinetic energy from vehicles driving over them. Kinetic energy increases with speed. The roads were invented by Peter Hughes and use piezoelectric materials to convert mechanical energy from passing vehicles into electric energy to power lights and charge electric cars. While renewable, initial costs are high and constant movement is needed to effectively generate energy. Estimates show kinetic roads could power thousands of
