Welcome to The Green Initiative.
A podcast where we discuss, challenge and educate our listeners on implementing green energy and discuss efficient ways to build back better.
Hosted by Daniella Jervis from the National Housing Group (NHG). NHG acquires and develops sustainable property in order to provide permanent housing solutions in order to help tackle the homelessness crisis within the UK.
Episode 2: Kinetic energy with Laurence Kemball-Cook from Pavegen.
In this episode of The Green Initiative, Daniella talks to Laurence Kemball-Cook founder and CEO of Pavegen. In this episode, they discuss the topic of kinetic energy and Pavegen: what it is, the benefits and challenges of kinetic energy, how you can capture this energy and the uses and how it can be used for environmental, social and corporate governance.
Laurence tells The Green Initiative about kinetic energy and how the Pavegen floor tiles create a unique connection to people through the power of a footstep; each step over the tiles can be converted into 2-5 joules of off-grid energy.
