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 becomes exponentially greater.Not only is all ...
Yet, new research suggests that bending ice and adding salt to it could transform this winter nuisance into a potential source of sustainable power. Xin Wen and his team at Xi’an Jiatong University in ...
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 ...
