Innovative tech in Japan to generate electricity

They did it first

There is no way the expense of installing and maintaining is exceeded by the value of energy produced here.

This makes walking more difficult, for absolutely minuscule benefit, with huge new maintenance requirements

Takes 500,000 steps worth of energy to produce 1 tile, but the tile only lasts 50,000 steps worth till it needs to be replaced.

In Gujarat, India, a project launched in 2012 is aimed to use the 532 km long network of Narmada canals across the state for installing solar panels and generate electricity. A solution that saves land, reduces evaporative losses and keeps solar panels cooler.

Ah, the Gooble Box...

How many steps for each tile to become carbon neutral?

Rick and Morty had it first

Haters walking in Japan

I feel like walking on bouncy tiles would feel really odd.
