An energy saving system in escalator includes a synchronizing mechanism (Synchronizer) 2, energy storing, releasing mechanism 3 and energy storing device 4 shown in Figure 1a. This system can be installed in between two or more parallel operating escalators where one or more escalator is used to transport people from upper floor to lower floor and others are to lower floor to upper floor The Escalators are synchronized by this invention and use the potential energy of the people moving down and transmit to the other one which moves up. This invention claims that it is capable of storing the surplus energy which produced by the people (potential energy) moving from upper floor to lower floor and can be utilized upon need The basic objective of this invention is to utilize the available energy generated by the self weight of the people in the escalator system in order to minimize the total energy consumption.
