successfully proves theconcept of harnessing energy from the vertical motion of an elevator, for it to be a commerciallyprofitable product, it needs more work. We hope that the result from this educational modelproposed in this paper would serve as a milestone, and help future innovators to use this conceptand technology to produce a profitable “real-world” elevator to generate energy. The skillslearned from this project were invaluable, as research, design, trial and error, as well as technicalwriting are all important experiences within engineering and physics. 9AcknowledgementThe authors would like to express their sincere thanks to Dr. Donald
