The demand for electricity is increasing highly due to advancement of present lifestyle of the human being. As the arising technology demand more electricity and the population is also increasing rapidly, so the energy demand is also increasing. This system generates power using a footstep force. This power generation system serves as a medium to generate electricity using non-conventional sources i.e. force, it will be stored and used. This project is useful at public places like railway stations, bridges, at every point of entry and exit. In this mechanical project, the rack is attached to the top plate where a person can press the plate and down. At the top shaft, the pinion is attached which is a mate to rack. When a person presses the plate, the pinion starts rotating at the other end of the shaft. Another gear is attached which is connected to the bottom shaft by chain drive. The chain rotates the freewheel attached to a bottom shaft, In the middle of the shaft the flywheel is attached which stores the energy in it at the other end gear is mate with generator motor which generates the energy.
