Introducing MotionPower™
Harnessing the Energy Beneath Your Tires
As you read this sentence, enough energy is being produced to light up half a million homes. But sadly, that energy is wasted because there is no technology to capture it.

The energy I’m referring to is the kinetic energy produced by the 250 million vehicles traveling U.S. roads every day. And New Energy Technologies Inc. is developing an exciting new technology that will help capture a portion of that valuable energy.
Our technology is similar to what is used to power hybrid cars, but instead of being installed in each vehicle, it’s installed in the roadways, capturing the friction energy that is otherwise dissipated as heat.
This idea no doubt raises questions in your mind: How does it work? How much energy will it actually capture? Won’t the energy used in capture offset the energy produced? And of course, is such an idea really possible in our lifetime?
You’ll be astonished to learn just how real this technology is, and how soon you might be able to see it used to light up your neighborhood, even your home.
Read on to discover how New Energy Technologies Inc. is contributing to the future of energy today with a reliable, efficient very real solution to our energy needs.
MotionPower™ Kinetic Technology is Simple and Efficient
For the first time ever, we stand to generate valuable electricity merely by driving our cars over simple energy-capturing devices.
With nearly 250 million cars traversing America’s roadways, we’re poised to capitalize on an untapped commercial opportunity, while delivering timely cost savings and long-term environmental benefits to energy consumers.

New Energy engineers have successfully engineered and built the Company’s first prototype, and are now actively working to further optimize the efficiency of the MotionPower™ device in preparation for installations at high traffic locations such as exit ramps, toll booths, traffic intersections, rest areas, travel plazas, restaurant and bank drive-thrus, border crossings, and neighborhoods with traffic calming zones.
Importantly, the MotionPower™ device has been engineered to ensure that it can be easily manufactured, and is resistant to damage from vehicles, road debris or weather.
Additionally, the energy-capture prototype device is straightforward to install and boasts a modular design, allowing installers to conveniently shorten or lengthen the MotionPower™ energy harvester in order to customize the system based on site conditions while maximizing power output.
Engineers developing the MotionPower™ technology have worked – and continue to work – to ensure that the system is able to:
-
Adapt to the unique characteristics of different vehicles in order to optimize the amount of energy captured;
-
Reduce or avoid potentially undesirable effects on safety, comfort ofvehicle occupants, and the stability of cargo; and
-
Adaptively monitor or regulate the speed or acceleration (or deceleration) of vehicles
New Energy has filed numerous patents with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for the protection of intellectual property associated with using the motion of vehicles to generate electricity, the fastest growing form of end-use energy in the world.
America is the world’s largest consumer of electricity, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, with nearly 70% of the nation’s electricity generated by coal and natural gas. The environmental impact and rising costs of these non-renewable fuels, along with the potential doubling of global electricity consumption in the coming years, clearly illustrate the urgent need for more creative, sustainable methods for generating electrical power.
