Water drops produce electricity when dripped through a small tube. That power might be harnessed as renewable energy in rainy places.

Did you know that most electric power plants, including wind mills, hydro dams and nuclear stations produce electricity the ...

Water falls on Earth every day as rain, and now scientists seem to have found a way of using it to create renewable electricity ...

There are many different kinds of renewable sources and they generate electricity in different ways. Some renewables - such as wind, waves, and solar - are not always available. Wind farms cannot ...

A team led by Rice University bioscientist Caroline Ajo-Franklin has discovered how certain bacteria breathe by generating ...

Some turbines are huge and have many blades that are pushed round by hot air or steam. (Cultura Creative RF / Alamy Stock Photo) Most of the ways we generate electricity involve kinetic energy.

A team has discovered how certain bacteria breathe by generating electricity, using a natural process that pushes electrons into their surroundings instead of breathing on oxygen. The findings could ...

For example, many ways that we generate electricity use heat from burning or nuclear decay to generate steam which turns a generator. Thermocouples generate electricity directly from heat ...
