California<\/strong> dreams of producing clean energy<\/strong> from cars<\/strong> and pedestrians, and now, after years of study and research, they have decided to allocate the first $ 2 million<\/strong> to fund<\/strong> trials.<\/p>\n

In theory, the technology<\/strong> works<\/strong>: it would be necessary to pave roads and sidewalks with piezoelectric<\/strong> panels<\/strong> to capture the kinetic energy of traffic and produce clean energy.<\/p>\n

The limit seems the amount of energy produced, which may be too low compared to the costs. The two million dollars so will serve to test the technology on a small scale in order to study the applicability<\/strong> and the returns<\/strong> over costs. The deputy head of the research division of\u00a0the Energy Commission said:<\/p>\n

The hope is that the use of clean energy generated\u00a0from the road\u00a0can make its contribution\u00a0reaching the state’s\u00a0goal to generate 50 percent of its electricity<\/strong> from renewable sources by 2030<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
