Dance Power

This video, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), shows how the engineers behind the Watt Nightclub in Rotterdam designed a dance floor which turns the energy created by clubbers on the dance floor into power for the lighting.

The success of the Sustainable Dance Club was due to the collaboration and perseverance of those involved. ENVIU (an organisation that promotes entrepreneurial business and especially focusing on those with a sustainable mission), engineers at the Technical Universities of Eindhoven and Delft and Dutch architects Doll, all worked together to make Watt a success.
