New droplet-based electricity generator: A drop of water generates 140V power, lighting up 100 LED bulbs

Simply amazing how much science can contribute to the planet. A drop of water could perhaps ultimately help power self driving cars and self driving electric trucks among many other things to include delivery robots.

Generating electricity from raindrops efficiently has gone one step further. A research team led by scientists from the City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has recently developed a droplet-based electricity generator (DEG), featured with a field-effect transistor (FET)-like structure that allows for high energy-conversion efficiency and instantaneous power density […]
