The present invention uses natural, renewable energy sources to activate a torque driven servo permanent magnet generator (servo-PMG) (2) by generating a movement (e.g., rotational) of the permanent magnets relative to the windings of said servo-PMG. Regenerative braking means are combined with said torque driven servo-PMG to reduce the speed, ?, of the permanent magnets relative to the windings of the servo-PMG so as to increase the mechanical torque whilst recovering the kinetic energy thus released by the deceleration, and transforming both magnetic and kinetic energy into electric current. In order to increase the efficacy of the invention, a CPU is programmed to optimize the speed reduction as a function of the energy transferred to the servo-PMG to move the permanent magnets relative to the windings of the servo-PMG by the capturing means. Contrary to most energy generating systems of the prior art which tend to maximize the relative speed, ?, of the generator to increase current output (power driven systems), the present invention is torque driven and may function at low relative speeds. Several sources of natural, renewable energy may be used, alone or in combination, to perform movement of the permanent magnets relative to the windings of the servo-PMG such as thermal (e.g., sunlight, geothermal), wind, hydraulic (e.g., rain, tides, river) or gravitational. |
