Step into sustainability. We teamed up with @Pavegen this #LondonClimateActionWeek - walking across their smart floor tiles at 22 Bishopsgate generated clean energy and planted trees. Our goal? 1,000 trees = 1,000 tonnes of CO₂ absorbed. Thank you for helping us power a greener future, one step at a time.

The law of conservation of energy applies to kinetic tiles like Pavegen’s. They convert energy from your footsteps into electricity, about 2-8 watts per step. Studies suggest the extra energy you expend is tiny, around 0.3 J/kgm, so you don’t feel more tired. User feedback, like at the London Olympics, supports this. However, the tiles’ efficiency is low, suitable only for small-scale power like LED lights, not large energy needs. The energy isn’t from “thin air” but from your motion, yet the impact on fatigue is negligible.

There are valid criticisms of Jay. This is a reach. It’s as simple as “we’re building a park for kids and while they (naturally) play they’ll also generate power.” Sounds like a win-win. Like the Pavegen electricity tiles. Esp cuz it’s backed by a seemingly reputable non-profit.
