Children have unlimited potential energy and in their ability to express it kinetically. And like every nation, Africa must rely on its children to create a new future of prosperity. Western societies are rife with expensive products that promote a life of leisure, laziness, and inefficiency, which have no place in developing nations. The developing nations within Africa do not have the luxury of allowing products in its environment that ignore its need for a utilitarian function to allow sustainable economic development

Power-Swing utilizes kinetic energy by harnessing the power of children's play, a renewable energy source. Technologies such as communications, refrigeration, and basic illumination can now be made possible by the assistance of the Power-Swing.

The Power-Swing play unit comes with an expandable battery bay and transformer and is designed with inexpensive aftermarket components, and current energy producing technologies to create off-the-grid electricity for remote villages.

Play being crucial to human and social development here can support an additional need - renewable energy. The children will benefit from realizing that their playtime can directly affect their village's growth or even its survival.

Costs for production and installation could be funded by NGO's, intergovernmental or multinational development agencies such as USAID, ADF, ADB Group, or other organizations that have humanitarian interests in sustainable economic development.

Though the Power-Swing would resemble a typical swing set, its extraordinary features are hidden through clever design, both protecting its components from theft, while protecting children from electrical shock, through its highly durable and innovative design.
