Abstract: The increasing demand for sustainable and renewable energy solutions has led to the development of energy recovery systems in everyday applications. This project presents a regenerative braking system for a bicycle that converts kinetic energy into electrical energy during braking. The system utilizes a generator connected to the bicycle wheel, which produces electricity when brakes are applied. The generated energy is stored in a rechargeable battery and is effectively monitored using a battery level indicator that displays the charge percentage in numerical form. This feature helps users easily track the available energy. The stored energy is further used to power a headlight mounted on the bicycle, improving safety during night travel. The system is simple, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly, requiring minimal modifications to the bicycle. It reduces energy wastage and promotes efficient energy utilization. This project demonstrates a practical approach to smallscale power generation and highlights the potential of integrating renewable energy systems into daily transportation. Additionally, the system enhances user awareness by providing real-time battery status, ensuring efficient energy usage. It also increases the overall functionality of the bicycle by combining energy generation, storage, and utilization in a single unit. The design supports sustainable development imd encourages the adoption of green technologies in everyday life.
