While riding your bike, you can charge your gadgets and devices by the Energysport kinetic energy. How it works is that the Energysport is attached to the [hub of the wheel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mysensor) and while riding your bike, it amps up in kinetic energy which is then converted into electricity. The energy is stored in the Energysport, and can be used to recharge any of your gadgets or devices. What a great concept to get people riding again! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.6/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 27% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Kinetic Energy Charging:** Opportunity to develop innovative charging solutions that harness kinetic energy from various sources. - **Energy Harvesting:** Disruptive potential in creating devices that capture and store energy from everyday activities. - **Sustainable Mobility:** Emerging trend of integrating renewable energy solutions into transportation to promote eco-friendly commuting. ### Where This Applies - **Renewable Energy:** Renewable energy companies can explore the development of innovative and compact energy harvesting technologies for various applications. - **Wearable Technology:** Wearable tech companies can leverage kinetic energy charging concepts to create self-powered devices and extend battery life. - **E-bikes and Electric Mobility:** Opportunity for e-bike manufacturers to incorporate kinetic energy charging technology into their products, providing an added value of on-the-go gadget charging. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Self-Charging E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vello-bike-design.md) - [Power-Generating Desk Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lifespan-ampera.md) - [Productivity-Supporting Exercise Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/acer-ekinekt-bd-3.md) - [Solar-Powered eBike Chargers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beambike.md) - [E-Bike Charging Partnerships](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bikeflex.md) - [Sleek Electricity-Storing Velomobiles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electricity-storing-velomobile.md) - [No-Plug E-Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/third-generation-pi-pop.md) - [Wireless Bike Battery Chargers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiler.md) - [Cordless E‑Bike Chargers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiler-compact.md)
