Manoj Bhargava , inventor of the 5-hour ENERGY drink , has pledged to give away 99 per cent of his $ 4 billion fortune . A huge investment will go into a design and engineering laboratory called Stage 2 Innovations intended to create technologies that provide a livelihood for people in the developing world . Other projects include ending the planet ’s oil and clean water resource crisis . Inventions include Free Electric , a bicycle - powered machine that can convert human mechanical energy to electricity . Bhargava plans to ship 10,000 of these free bikes to India . Next year, Bhargava plans to ship 10,000 of these free bikes to India, with initial pilot testing planned in the northern state of Uttarakhand before the nationwide roll-out. Bharvaga is also planning to develop submarine cables that could potentially conduct heat from the core of the earth directly to the surface . This could theoretically end the need for oil rigs and nuclear energy plants .
