Earth Resonant Field Energy Generation

This idea consists of constructing a Torus underground, which will collect electrons. This structure represents the stator in an electric motor. It will be insulated from the surrounding ground and collect electrons through static electric currents. When enough electrons are collected a resonant magnetic-electric field will draw a continuous stream of electrons from the surface.

Electric Car Battery Recharge/Replacement Station

The main problems with electric cars are the autonomy and the recharge time, which makes recharge stations difficult to deploy. My entry is a station that removes the battery and replaces it with another that was previously charged on site. the process would be faster than a full recharge and could deployed on a wild scale.

Electric Dryer Energy Saver

This heat exchanger is designed for an electric dryer that is vented outside. It will capture 50 to 80 percent of the waste heat without venting the humidity inside. It is designed to be very fire resistant yet easy to build with wood working tools. It uses recycled aluminum drink cans and easy to obtain materials.

Elpipes: Critical Enabling Technology for a Supergrid

Elpipes are polymer-insulated underground HVDC conductors based on low cost extruded metal conductors. Elpipes are designed for higher efficiency than is practical for overhead power lines. For a 325-800kV DC elpipe, we have selected a design basis of 1% loss per 1000 km, about three times better than an overhead 800kVDC line,

Energy Harvester with Piezoelectric Fastener

Fastener pieces are supporting a load and vibration that it make ideal to use piezoelectric material for an energy harvester. The forces can be compression or tension, many times both in the same element. It can be use to maximize the electric output.

The simplest element is the washer. It is easy to make and cheap.

Energy Integration from the Environment

My idea is on the integration of energy which is being wasted in day-to-day activity. A small power which is enough to power an LED is more than enough for Energy Integration.
