A system for generating power from the passage of motor vehicles over a roadway which includes a highly efficient linkage for connecting a treadle or rocker plate mounted in the roadbed with one or more turbine wheels. The turbine wheels are affixed to a common shaft that is adapted to drive a generator for providing work. The linkage is constructed so that losses throughout the system are minimized whereby a relatively high percentage of the total input energy is converted to useful work.
