Harvesting Highway Turbulence and the Opportunity to Conserve
“By acting now, future
generations may be more apt to applaud our efforts to shape an innovative and
secure energy economy than to criticize our unwillingness to change.”
.
Smart interstate highway infrastructure. Are we putting provisions into our roads and
highways that could support our (common wealth) basic needs? Provide jobs
locally? Where future nano tech /micro generators can harvest highway
turbulence (Parasitic Catalyst) and generate electricity on-demand to
neighborhoods where they serve now and in the future?
If we take the bad with
the good, does that mean when residents tolerate the drone of traffic, they can
take satisfaction knowing that same buzz is responsible for a sizable offset on
their electrical bill? Or communities reap big benefits in leasing out these
distributed-dynamos to large conglomerates in congested metropolitan areas. Not
to mention the impact telemetry and web-centric services embedded into roads
would have in preparing for disasters or support emergency communications in
times of crisis?
