Q. Where does the energy come from?
A. People.
Q. Are paving slabs that make walking more tiring going to be popular?
A. ........
Shopping malls and high streets probably not a good idea but train stations, offices etc where LOTS of people making SHORT walks then it is almost something for nothing - good idea.
