A new high-voltage generator concept is promising pulse energies on the scale of hundreds of lightning strikes, a claim that ...

The researchers set out to explore whether simple ingredients – silicon and water – could be arranged so that mechanical ...

Though research on moisture-electric generators, which create energy from ambient humidity, exists, the tech isn't ready for ...

Inspired by the classic drinking bird toy, scientists have developed an engine that efficiently converts energy from water evaporation into electricity to power small electronics. The device produces ...

Traditionally, most of the small hydro electricity generators are designed with “drop” type. If there is a need for a man-made gap, it will require the corresponding civil building. To improve the ...

A novel solar energy system is integrated with a compact thermoelectric generator to conduct electricity. It’s another stepping stone on the path to self-charging electronics. Researchers have ...

A power outage isn't fun and can be a real pain. If you live in an at-risk area, you might want to consider one of these home generator options. There are a number of factors to consider when shopping ...

Humanity has been harvesting energy from the wind for centuries. The practice goes back at least to 8th century Persia where the first known historical records of windmills came, but likely extends ...
