This paper describes a new pavement energy harvest system developed in Portugal by the Waydip Company with the collaboration of the pavement mechanics laboratory of the University of Coimbra. The electric energy generated by the Waynergy system for people during 1 h was 525 J or 0.15 W.h. It is expected that the Waynergy system for vehicles could generate substantial electrical energy, which can be used not only to charge batteries for electric vehicles, but also for general consumption through injection into the electricity grid or direct use in electrical equipment, such as traffic lights, public lighting and outdoor advertising.%26apos;
