The Times has an interesting article on ‘human power’, where the footfall of people could be harnessed to produce emission free energy. People’s feet would compress pads underneath flooring which would generate electricity by pushing a fluid through a mini – turbine. The Spinnaker Tower, a popular visitor attraction in Portsmouth, could be one of the first destinations which could install the technology.
