Abstract: A device for generating electricity includes a rotatable flywheel assembly including a flywheel and an axle rotatable about a first axis to spin the flywheel, support means to suspend the rotatable assembly and to allow the flywheel assembly to rotate with respect to the support means about a second axis to perform rotary motion normal to the first axis, and track means contactable with a free end of the axle for augmenting the spinning of the flywheel while it is also in rotary motion about the first and second axes. The rotating assembly is initially rotated to induce spinning motion of the flywheel and the axle until the flywheel has a predetermined rotational energy, the flywheel assembly being engaged with an electrical generator for converting the spinning motion of the flywheel assembly into electricity. The track means provides augmenting rotation to the flywheel assembly in at least an intermittent manner.
