Scientists from the University of Massachusetts Amherst have developed a device that can successfully generate “electricity out of thin air”. The device developed by scientists utilizes natural protein to generate electricity from the air moisture. The major advantage of the device is that it is non-polluting, renewable, and can be manufactured at a very low cost. Moreover, the device has the potential to generate energy even in extremely low humid areas, such as deserts across any continent. The new device could have notable implications for the future of clean, renewable energy, climate change but also the future of medication.
