College Students Go Gilligan’s Island To Keep The Lights On

Remember when the Professor built a generator?

Well

College students keep lights on by using gym equipment: ‘Super exciting … that there is an impact’

Students at Brown University have found a novel way to generate clean energy.

According to Kristin Toussaint of Fast Company, the college has installed eight SportsArt machines in the Nelson Fitness Center on campus. The new hardware takes kinetic energy from treadmills, rowing machines, and stair machines and converts it into electricity.

The initiative was powered by senior Elina Pipa, who took a class on climate solutions.

“The place where I felt like I could make a difference and really be passionate about implementing this project was Brown,” Pipa said. “I really hoped to make my pitch come true, if possible.” (snip)

As more and more institutions look to make a green energy push, you can expect to see more of these unique solutions in the hunt for sustainable, renewable energy sources. From passive and net-zero buildings and retrofittings, to the surging implementation of solar resources, organizations worldwide are committing more resources to going green.

I mean, it’s not a bad idea, converting that exercise into electricity, but, wouldn’t it just be easier to build nuclear power plants? And having the college kids give up their own use of fossil fueled vehicles? How soon till colleges start making these kinds of power generation mandatory for the kiddies?
