Why Human Power?

1. A human can generate at least as much energy as a 1m2 solar panel on a sunny day.
2. Unlike solar and wind energy, human power is always available, no matter the season or time of day. There's little need for energy storage.
3. Unlike fossil fuels, human power can be a clean energy source.
4. Unlike solar panels, wind turbines, and batteries, humans don't need to be manufactured in a factory.
5. Unlike all other power sources, human power increases as the human population grows.
6. Human power is an all-round power source. Humans supply muscle power (which can be converted into mechanical energy or electricity), body heat (especially during exercise) and human waste (which can be converted to biogas and fertiliser).
7. If we generate energy ourselves, we will first and foremost ask ourselves how much energy we actually need.

Human power is the most sustainable power source on Earth.
