Human Power Plant (1.2): Work Songs

Posted: 27 Nov 2017 01:39 PM PST

Video of the prototype in= Antwerp. Made by Laura Zuallaert.

Everybody's= talking about sustainable energy, but what is it exactly? And how does it = sound? We try to answer these questions with the newest version of our prot= otype Human Power Plant, an off-the-grid renewable = energy source that produces electricity, compressed air, and water unde= r pressure.

In order to= try and motivate people to generate their own power, we have equipped the = human power plant with sound production. In earlier times, when physical la= bour was much more common than it is today in the industrialised world, peo= ple sang songs to increase work productivity, keep boredom at bay, or coord= inate the actions of different workers. At the same time, these work songs = were an outlet for humour, ridicule, and frustration.

Following the same logic, in the Human = Power Plant every movement that produces energy now also produces sound. Co= nsequently, each time the Human Power Plant is operated, a work song is com= posed.

The Human Power Plant 1.2 was built in = Antwerp, Belgium, where it was shown during a preview on October 8. Archipel, the m= akers collective that offered us the space, brought an unsuspecting team of= bodybuilders to the event and made a video, which you can see above.

3D"Human=

Prototype in Antwerp. Picture: Alies Broekhuizen.

From Octobe= r 14, 2017 to January 15, 2018, the Human Power Plant can be seen, touched and operated at the Museum Boijmans van Beunin= gen in Rotterdam. It will power the Christmas tree of the museum, provi= ded that visitors are prepared to exercise.

During the = first month, sound production has already proven to be a very effective motivator of human power, even without a tree to light up. In fa= ct, the human power plant has become the victim of its own success, needing= daily repair to keep it in operation.

In compari= son with our previous prototype, which tried to= lure people with a jacuzzi, it is = clear that sound attracts more energy producers and keeps them exercising f= or longer.

H= ow Much Energy Does it Produce?

Some people have asked us how much ener= gy the human power plant produces. The answer is: not much. This prototype was built to investigate whether or= not people can be motivated to produce their own power, and do this in the= most sustainable way (no chemical batteries, no high-tech components).

TEverything that makes it fun, also makes it = inefficient. Take a look at the sch= eme below. Mechanical movement is c= onverted to water under pressure and compressed air, which are then convert= ed to electricity.

3D"Hpp1"

There are so many conversion and distri= bution losses in the process that it's actually surprising that the human p= ower plant still generates electricity at all -- an estimated 60 watts of p= ower when all six exercise machines are used simultaneously. Assuming an average human power production of 100= watts, this corresponds to 10 watts of power per person, or an energy loss= of 90%.

Could it be that efficiency is simply n= ot fun? Or could we make a human power plant that is both energy efficient = and fun to use? That=C2=B4s the challenge for the next prototype.
