Elevolt: a self-powered, self-harvesting, passenger lift for usage in the vertical transportation of passengers in all buildings

02/12/2021：本PCR中的拟议项目范围变更不会导致原始项目公开说明发生任何变更。比以往任何时候都多的人住在城市里。它们提供经济增长的潜力导致英国越来越多的政治关注城市环境。在高层建筑中，安装节能措施的成本远低于其他类型的住房，大规模资助改造措施已被证明是能源公司实现2050年零排放目标的一种具有成本效益的方式。办公/公寓楼内最高的电力成本支出之一是乘客电梯。降低这一成本将使业主能够大幅降低碳足迹和能源成本。乘客电梯的性质导致功耗非常高，热量/机械传递损失效率低下。电梯占建筑物能源消耗的10%。目前还没有一种可持续的技术来减少乘客电梯的大量能源消耗。EleVolt将通过这个为期9个月的开发项目，寻求开发第一款真正可持续的电梯

02/12/2021: The proposed project scope changes within this PCR will not result in any changes to the original project public description. More people than ever before live in cities. Their potential to deliver economic growth has led to a growing political focus on urban environments in the UK. The cost of installing energy efficiency measures is far lower per property for high rise blocks than other types of housing, and funding retrofit measures on a large scale has proven to be a cost-effective way for energy companies to meet 2050 zero emission targets. One of the highest cost outlays for power within an office/apartment block is passenger lifts. Reducing this cost will allow the owner to drastically reduce their carbon footprint and energy cost.The nature of passenger lifts lend themselves to very high power consumption and inefficient heat/mechanical transfer loss. Elevators account for up to 10% of a building's energy consumption. At present there does not exist a sustainable technology to reduce the large energy consumption of passenger lifts. EleVolt will seek to develop the first truly sustainable lift through this 9-month development project
