Regenerative type suspensions are employed to recover energy that is unproductively dissipated in dampers in automotive suspension system. In order to effectively recover energy from suspension, an attempt has been made in the design to capitalize the vehicle parameters and concoct a suitable linear generator in unison with helical spring. The performance characteristics drawing suitable inferences between the vehicle parameters and suspension specifications are well investigated.
