nPower® Kinetic Energy The other alternative energy
Producing power from movement
nPower® is a vibration harvesting technology. It harvests kinetic energy from large amplitude, small frequency forces that occur in nature. Human walking, wind, and waves are good examples of these types of forces. nPower® works best when it is designed for a specific frequency, but it also has the ability to work within a range of frequencies. For example, the PEG has optimum power output within a frequency range. It also has the ability to harvest ambient vibrations that are experienced in daily life, such as riding in automobiles and trains or riding a bicycle. nPower's® electrical output correlates directly to the physical size of the device.
The initial product being commercialized is the nPower® PEG (Personal Energy Generator). The PEG is a small, lightweight electrical generator that produces power for handheld electronic devices (i.e. cell phones, iPods, GPS, etc.) by harvesting kinetic energy from human movement. When a user carries an nPower® PEG and connects it to a personal electronic device, the PEG provides a constant flow of electricity that charges the battery while the user walks. The nPower® PEG gives users peace of mind that their cell phone, iPod, and GPS will have battery power when they need it the most; when they are on the go.
Tremont Electric holds multiple patents on the nPower® technology.
This environmentally friendly technology is scalable in size and power output, meaning nPower® can be at the core of many new products of various sizes to serve both consumer and commercial renewable energy needs. |
nPower® technology is scalable and provides a range of product opportunities including:
- Personal use in the form of a human-motion powered Personal Energy Generator (PEG) used to charge mobile electronic devices.
- Commercial use in the form of a Wave Energy Converter (WEC) used to create commercial amounts of energy that can be supplied to the electrical grid.
- Biomedical use in the form of a Biomedical Implantable Generator (BIG) used to power pacemakers and automatic defibrillators.

 Kinetic Energy
The process of finding kinetic energy to harvest is simple; creating the technology to harvest kinetic energy is a little more complicated. The science behind our technology is based on the Faraday principle and Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity. Our technology is scientifically unique enough to receive a patent, yet very simple to use.
