Sweden's largest train station, Stockholm's Central Station, has begun harvesting the body heat of the passengers to warm a nearby building. About 250,000 people pass through the station each day.

　　瑞典最大的火车站——斯德哥尔摩中央火车站——日前开始收集人体热量为其附近的办公楼供暖，而据了解，该车站每日客运量高达25万。

　　Created by the Swedish company Jernhusen, the new way of keeping down energy costs is to shift energy between two different buildings with heat exchangers in the station's ventilation system that transfer it to water-filled pipes.

　　据报道，该节能新方法源自于瑞典耶恩胡森集团，通过利用车站通风系统中的热交换机将热能传入水管道中，最终实现两个不同建筑之间的能量转换。

　　"Passengers in themselves generate a bit of heat. They also buy food, they buy drinks, they buy newspapers and they buy books. All generate an enormous amount of heat. So why shouldn't we use this heat," says Klas Johnasson, head of Jernhusen's environmental division.

　　“乘客自身会产生热量。他们还买食物、饮料、报纸和书。这些都会产生巨大的热量。所以我们为何不去利用这些热量呢？” 耶恩胡森集团环境部门负责人克拉斯 约翰松说道。

　　Now, the heat harvesting has slashed electricity bills for the nearby building by 25 percent and Jernhusen is hoping the idea will make its way into other buildings.
