Amur region stand shows how to charge a phone with an electric bicycle

You can charge your phone with an electric bicycle and compete in energy generation with a hydroelectric power plant at the stand of the Amur region. To do this, you will literally have to break a sweat - you have to pedal as hard as you can. At the same time, the screen across tells you how to get energy more efficiently.

The process is quite complicated. For example, after a few minutes of active riding Arseny Sidorin charged up his phone by only one percent - he generated about 8 watts per hour. Despite the difficulties, the young man was satisfied.

"I'm a student of Baumanka and all this technical stuff is very interesting to me, although it's not always clear, I'm only in my first year. My impressions of the exposition are already very positive, there is a lot of movement and interactivity," said Arseniy Sidorin.

A small tour is held on the exposition screen so that visitors learn about where electricity comes from. When the race is over, you can compare your result, for example, with the work of a hydroelectric power plant.

The stand also hosts a raffle for a trip to the Vostochny Cosmodrome, an opportunity to assemble and launch your own Angara-A5 rocket and play the game "Gateway to China". Young guests can scan their palms to find out what profession suits them.

Let us remind you that the International RUSSIA EXPO at VDNH is open until April 12, 2024. Everyone can visit it free of charge.
