Event Title
Session 2A Sustainable Urban Communities: Eletricity Generated by Kinetic Energy from Users of Cleaner Mass Transport
Start Date

Description
In the Peruvian capital, hydroelectric and thermoelectric plants provide the highest percentage of electricity and fossil fuels are almost the only source of the vehicle fleet, configuring an impure and diversified energy matrix. The viability of electricity generation is analyzed with the installation of piezoelectric tiles to meet its energy demand in a “Metropolitano” station with alarge influx. The walk of 20 million people produces approximately 180 kWh / h generating 30% savings in electricity costs, in addition to the environmental benefits related to the reduction of GHG and social benefits of a more efficient and healthy system.
