What is pavgen?

Pavegen is a technology company that has developed a system that generates electricity from footsteps. The company was founded in 2009 by a British entrepreneur, Laurence Kemball-Cook, and is based in London, England. Pavegen's patented technology converts the kinetic energy generated by foot traffic into usable electricity, which can be used for a variety of applications such as lighting, data collection, and urban infrastructure. The technology uses a series of tiles that flex and compress when walked on, which in turn generates electricity that can be stored in a battery or used immediately. Pavegen has installed its technology in various locations around the world, including airports, shopping centers, and sports stadiums, and has partnered with companies like Adidas and Google to showcase the technology. The company aims to create sustainable, clean energy solutions for urban environments while also promoting healthy, active lifestyles.
