Gravity Powered Generator

Manzanita School

Harnessing the power of gravity itself to generate clean energy.

Creating energy requires energy, and not all sources are created equal. For instance, coal and gas are much worse for the environment, our water systems and our bodies than solar or wind energy. The gravity powered generator offers another way to generate clean energy. It is a generator powered by gravity, the model includes a weight that makes a spring slowly decline and spin a wheel that interlocks with the spring. The wheel has a generator attached to it. As the wheel spins, the generator produces electricity.
