What a smart eco-friendly idea. The Revolution Door's concept is similar to a turbine spinning somewhere deep inside a [hydroelectric dam](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hydrokinetic-river-power) or within [wind turbine to generate renewable electricity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Portable-Wind-Generator). New York designers Fluxxlab's Revolution puts otherwise-wasted kinetic energy from a revolving office door to good useâ€”generating power. People exert a chunk of their own energy when pushing a revolving door around anyway, so it may as well be captured via [gears and an electricity generator](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ross-lovegroves-door-handles). Think about the thousands of revolving doors across the world spinning around all the time.
