Dance Floors Used As Renewable Energy

We use the generated electricity on the spot to power the floor s infinity led lights.

Dance floors used as renewable energy.

The dance floor tiles use human movement as a source of energy. In 2008 the team created club watt an ecological dance club with flooring tile that harnesses the ecstatic movements of dancers converting kinetic energy to actual electricity. Mashable directs our attention to energy floors a groovy company based in rotterdam that has used dancefloor power to create more than 8 billion joules of electricity so far. Each floor module can produce up to 35 wp of sustained output.

Through this process the floor interacts with the public and involves them in a unique and interactive energy experience. By adding an energy floor to a dance club or exercise class the forgotten energy from the simple act of taking steps is activated helping to reduce carbon emissions with dance. This kinetic energy is directly converted into electricity. The kinetic energy is converted into electricity which powers the floor s led lights.

Made in rotterdam like rotterdam known for pioneering pushing boundaries and a no nonsense vibe we have a typical make it happen mentality. While one has built a system to capture the energy of foot traffic the other is harnessing the power of smooth dance moves. The floor interacts with the public and involves them in an interactive energy experience. Both the sustainable dance floor and the smart energy floor are designed and assembled in our hometown rotterdam.
