Experiments reveal that when slabs of salty ice are strained, electricity is generated, though practical uses are still a long way off.

Among the alternative energy sources harvesting energy directly from the environment, our abundant water resources are ...

Ever wondered how to create your own electricity? Watch as we show you how to build a DIY water generator that sparks energy and powers devices using water. This project not only demonstrates ...

Ice generates electricity as a response to stress when it bends. Experiments with pure and saline ice found that with enough salt, that electrical charge ... It may not seem that ice does much except ...

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 ...

How can open ocean currents generate energy? Ocean currents contain kinetic energy that can be converted to electrical power using turbines. This is similar to offshore wind farms, or wind turbines ...
