Abstract
Energy harvesting apparatus 1 comprising a panel, a mechanism for mounting the panel for reciprocal movement about an axis of rotation and a mechanism for converting kinetic energy of the reciprocal movement into output energy. Preferably multiple energy harvesting apparatuses are arranged in an array along at least one side of a road 21 such that pressure waves caused by passing vehicles generate the reciprocal movement of the panel of each energy harvesting apparatus. Alternatively, an energy harvesting apparatus could be positioned within a fuel tank to harvest energy from the fuel as it moves forwards and backwards as a vehicle is driven. The panel may be plastic, curved and be of a cellular construction. The mounting mechanism may comprise two cylindrical spindles aligned to define the axis of rotation, which may be to the side of the panel. The panel may also be biased towards a home orientation and may be arranged vertically on either a vertical or horizontal surface.
