How plants can generate electricity to power LED light bulbs
Researchers have discovered that living plants are literally ‘green’ power source: they can generate, by a single leaf, more than 150 Volts, enough to simultaneously power 100 LED light bulbs. Researchers also showed that an ‘hybrid tree’ made of natural and artificial leaves can act as an innovative ‘green’ electrical generator converting wind into electricity.
