MUMBAI, India, July 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611060733 A) filed by Nims University Rajasthan, Jaipur on May 13, 2026, for Vibration Powered Piezoelectric Road System.
Inventors include Dhairya Purohit; Palak Sachan; and Subramanyam Mithil Manikanta.
The application for the patent was published on July 17, 2026, under issue no. 29/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a Piezoelectric Road-Hydrogen Generator System (101) configured to harvest kinetic energy from vehicular traffic and convert it into regulated electrical power for green hydrogen production. An array of piezoelectric modules (102) embedded within a road surface generates pulsed, high-voltage AC power upon vehicle traversal. The generated power is transmitted to a remote energy management unit (103) comprising a power conditioning module (104) with GaN-based switching circuitry (105) for rectification and DC conversion. A hardware control unit (106) executes adaptive current control logic (107) using feedback from a real-time electrolysis feedback loop (109) to maintain a constant current supplied to a solid oxide electrolysis cell interface (108). Deterministic PWM-based power actuation (110) ensures microsecond-scale regulation, thereby stabilizing intermittent power input, improving hydrogen yield, and extending electrolysis cell lifespan.
