Renewable energy sources are scarce, while a lot of unused energy exists in simple physical phenomena such as buoyancy.

The Buoyaninator is a solution that makes use of buoyancy, the upward force exerted by a liquid on an object, caused by the pressure difference between the top and bottom of the object. Where there is force, there is also energy, specifically potential energy. The buoyancy of objects in liquids therefore contains usable energy. To capture this untapped energy, the Buoyaninator uses electromagnetic induction.
