California Center for Sustainable Energy

The Pedal Power allows you to demonstrate concepts of energy conservation through hands-on audience participation by having the audience create and use their own energy. The Pedal Power is simple enough for anyone to use; energy professional and non-technical people alike can appreciate the intuitive design.The display features a bicycle, generator and the pedal power display board. As you peddle, the generator provides energy to the display board, turning on the LED, fluorescents and incandescent light bulbs and other appliances. As you move from energy efficient to non-energy efficient devices, the peddling gets more intense! We encourage you to stop by and try to light up the four incandescent bulbs!
