Urban areas are often susceptible to regional blackouts due to natural disasters, human factors, and other issues, severely impacting urban functionality and posing significant risks. PONOS, however, offers a renewable energy generation and storage system that combines the innovative concept of microgrids (local power grids). It aims to allow people to generate electricity while cycling and store this power in the urban microgrid for use as emergency backup power. This ensures the provision of electricity during blackouts to maintain essential urban functions, achieving self-sufficiency in emergency power supply.
