Factibilidad técnica y económica de implementar un sistema energy harvesting con generadores piezoeléctricos, en una zona de alto tráfico vehicular de la ciudad de Cali

Abstract

Taking into account the global context on the growing demand for energy and the pollution generated by producing and accessing this resource, the possibility of generating energy was studied through a new and ingenious piezoelectric technology, which has as basic principle take advantage the force that is put pressure on the pavement according to the speed of traffic and the vehicular flow. ///// The project was conceived by the characterization of vehicles and selected scenarios, design of the roads with their respective associated cost estimation, simulation of information characterized through a model developed in Microsoft Excel to determine the generation of energy in each of the Systems and also an economic analysis to determine the viability of carry out this project in one of the scenarios.
