The team checked the energy harvesters by including them into synthetic plants.Electrical energy can be produced by nature in a number of ways. Solar panels transform light energy from the sun, and wind turbines change the kinetic energy of moving air. Ravinder Dahiya and colleagues desired to create a multi-source energy harvester that might produce power from both wind and rain.Design and Functionality of Energy HarvestersThe group constructed two various types of energy collectors: a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) to record kinetic energy from the wind and a droplet-based energy generator (DEG) to collect energy from falling raindrops.
