Researchers at the National University of Singapore have created a new device that generates electricity day and night using ambient air and heat. This invention is seen as an alternative to traditional solar panels and is expected to significantly reduce household electricity costs in the future. Reports unian.net.
Developed by experts, this device is a fabric-based technology with a thickness of only 0.3 millimeters. It has the property of absorbing moisture and heat from the air and converting them into electricity. During tests, the device managed to generate 0.7 volts for over 150 hours. The main component of the device is a hygroscopic ionic hydrogel. Although the technology is currently in the testing phase, it could bring major changes to the energy sector.
At the same time, alternative solutions are increasing in the energy market. For example, the "Shine 2.0" portable wind turbine developed by the Canadian startup "Aurea Technologies" is also noteworthy. It has a compact size and fits easily into a backpack. This turbine generates up to 50 watts of power using weak wind and stores energy in its internal battery. Such innovations will serve to make energy supply more convenient and affordable in the future.
