Transport sector is a major GHG emitting sector in Sri Lanka. About 60% of the air pollution (especially in Colombo City) comes from this sector (AirMAC, 2009). The main way of transportation is through the road network, which is supplemented by rail, air, and water transport means. Out of passenger transport, buses carry about 50% and railways carry about 4% of the passengers, while the rest of the passengers are carried by the other modes (Jayaweera, 2011). Road transport accounts for about 96% of passenger transportation and 99% of freight transportation (Jayaweera, 2011).

Background: Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed an electromagnetic transducer for converting kinetic energy to electrical energy or electrical energy to mechanical displacement. The transducer is targeted towards operation under harsh conditions such as high centrifugal acceleration high axial and radial static displacements and tilting movements.
