A research team affiliated with UNIST has introduced a technology that generates electricity from raindrops striking rooftops ...

The device, called the Superhydrophobic Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Droplet-Based Electricity Generator, or S-FRP-DEG, harvests ...

Abstract Automated and effective urban stormwater management (USM) is essential to address the increase in stormwater hazards due to climate change ...

Insects have been known to sense and tap into electric fields, but new research shows that swarms can actually produce atmospheric electric charges. By measuring the extent of this influence, the ...

A new technology has been developed that generates electricity from rainwater falling on a roof, which could power drainage systems or alarm systems during heavy downpours. The Ulsan National Institut ...

Water is heavy, so if you think about it, a moving ocean wave has quite a bit of energy. Scientists have a new way to use triboelectric generators to harvest that power for oceangoing systems. (PDF) ...

BOULDER, Colo. — Imagine a future where simply driving along a highway or even walking down a sidewalk could produce electricity to power street lights or traffic signals. That future is now for ...
