Abstract
An energy generation device for mobile carriers is disclosed. The mobile carrier moves in a fluid environment. The disclosed device contains a rotating mechanical unit, a power generation unit, and a power storage unit. The rotating mechanical unit is connected to the surface of the mobile carrier, and is exposed in the fluid environment for converting the fluid kinetic energy into rotational energy. In addition, the power generation unit converts the rotational energy into electrical energy, which is then stored in the power storage unit.
