Une entreprise européenne a mis au point une technologie qui permet de générer de l’énergie à partir de… vos stepettes sur le plancher de dance:
The system, developed by SDC together with scientists at the Technical University of Delft and architects from a Dutch firm called Döll, involves a network of springs and magnets that convert downward movement mechanically into energy.
Club Watt, of course, doesn’t want its floor to be too bouncy — otherwise its dancers might be thrown off balance. But the floor will have a give of one centimeter, enough to generate 5 to 10 watts of electricity per dancer. SDC estimates the eco-club will require about 2,000 people moving at once to keep the place bright.
Le système serait déjà en place à Londres et à Rotterdam et permettrait aux clubs en question de générer 30% de leurs besoins en énergie.
Non, mais quand-même… c’est fort.
Vive la technologie.
