OPPORTUNITY – FOR WHOM…
IDEA GENERATION IDEA EVALUATION IDEA SELECTION Electricity resulting from pressure.

No need of replaceable fuel.
Generating zero running cost electricity

Lead zirconate titanate crystals generate measurable piezoelectricity when their static structure is deformed by about 0.1% of the original dimension

Attractiveness
IDEA EVALUATION IDEA SELECTION

Value Creation
Since electricity is absolutely essential at home, the source of free and reliable source of electricity would be a great product-service mix

Extremely attractive due the several advantages and low running cost Also it can be installed at homes reducing dependence on external source of electricity

PERSONAL ENTERPRISE

Timely
Fossil fuels causing huge CO2 emissions and also getting over at a fast pace
Hence the right time to invest in such eco friendly technologies

Durable
Currently being used in cigarette lighters. Can last for years without needing any maintenance or replacement
