A stream of compressed air does not look like a power source. In factories, it usually hisses through pipes, drives tools, then disappears as waste.

One key to harvesting the ocean’s clean energy—at least a little of it—may lie in static electricity. A team of researchers in Portugal has now successfully used it to run small generators inside a ...

Scientists have engineered an advanced energy management unit (EMU) that notably enhances the efficacy of electrostatic generators intended for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. This advancement ...

How did we first discover electricity? In this video, we build the early device that first helped us harness and understand this powerful force: the electrostatic generator!

Lagos — A new study published in Advanced Energy Materials by researchers at Chung-Ang University reports a Tesla turbine–inspired electricity generator that produces high-voltage electrical output ...
