Bangladesh has huge potentials to generate energy without any fuel using a new technology, ‘Heavy Circular Moving Object’s Triggering Energy Conversion’ (HECMOTE), said a leading scientist.
“This is a very new technology. This doesn’t require any fuel. It’s a big thing,” prominent scientist Prof Dr M Shamsher Ali told UNB on Friday.
Prof Ali, also former Vice Chancellor of Bangladesh Open University (BOU) and ex-President of Bangladesh Science Academy, said proper funding can help scale up the initiative generating over 100 megawatt electricity from a plant.
“It needs funding. In the long run, it will be important in the country’s interest,” said the scientist, also the chief adviser of HECMOTE Technology.
Kazi Abdus Samad Masud, communication officer of HECMOTE Technology, said this technology is a new invention in the modern science and some theories of physics are being applied in the process.
They will soon go for formal demonstration of the technology to draw attention so that both the public and private sectors take the matter seriously with an investment perspective.
The system uses round objects moving on a plain exterior to capture the surface’s gravitational energy to run traditional generators to produce power.
The technology is about converting gravitational energy into mechanical energy to generate electrical energy. It will not use any fossil fuel and thus, will not release any toxic elements into the atmosphere.
Gravitational energy is potential energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field.
