As the threat of climate change looms in our planet, scientists around the world are constantly trying to restrain the burning of fossil fuels for human activities. Researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have devised a way to generate electricity by using nothing but the air around us. It just uses the air and not any wind-mill or wind-turbine.
The researchers made a working prototype of the device. The small-scale version of the “Air-gen” can power devices that consume low power, according to Derek Lovley. And according to Yao, the tech can be integrated with wall paints to generate electricity for households, once fully ready.
