Scientists Claim Nanogenerators Could Produce Significant Electricity from Sea Waves

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Takeaways:

  • Scientists have found that capturing energy from static energy could double the previous record for power generated per volume.
  • When different materials rub together, it produces the triboelectric effect and devices that use this effect to produce energy are called nanogenerators.
  • The scientists propose to link thousands of triboelectric nanogenerators together in long chains, which will generate enough power to make the devices efficient for wave power.
