The team at Sapphire Technologies has developed equipment that generates zero-carbon electricity using natural gas pipeline pressure differentials. Sapphire CEO, Freddie Sarhan, is center-frame, sixth ...
Rain could one day become a source of clean electricity, according to a group of scientists in Singapore. Their experiments have been able to generate power from water droplets falling through a tube.
The first documentation of static electricity dates back to 600 BCE. Even after 2,600 years’ worth of tiny shocks, however, researchers couldn’t fully explain how rubbing two objects together causes ...
Static electricity—specifically the triboelectric effect, aka contact electrification—is ubiquitous in our daily lives, found in such things as a balloon rubbed against one’s hair or styrofoam packing ...
For centuries, ice has been a symbol of static, unyielding cold. Yet, a groundbreaking discovery is turning our understanding of this common substance on its head. Scientists have found that ice is a ...
Researchers from Singapore have developed a fairly simple way to use falling water droplets to generation of electric power. It is noted that the scientists performed charge separation by directing ...
Who hasn't laughed while rubbing a balloon on their sweater and then bringing it close to their neighbor's hair to see it “fly up”? After more than 2,000 years of mystery, science may have finally ...
As climate variability mitigation has become a global issue, countries are promoting the introduction of power generation using renewable energy such as solar power and wind power. In recent years, in ...
A trio of physicists from Princeton University, CIT's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Spectral Sensor Solutions, all in the U.S., is proposing the possibility of generating electricity using energy from ...

Scientists generate electricity using only water and pressure inside silicon pores
The Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH) scientists and colleagues from the German Electron Synchrotron (DESY), one of the world’s leading particle accelerator centers, discovered that mechanical ...
But new research shows there’s another force working to their advantage: static electricity. At human scale, static electricity is little more than a curiosity. You walk across the carpet, friction ...
