‘It was an accident’: the scientists who have turned humid air into renewable power

@Norobiik I don't hold much hope in harnessing triboelectricity into something useful. It's been attempted to be done for years and yes it can produce a lot of power but to turn that power into useable energy that you get from outlet is not that easy. If it could be done, it's a large untapped power source.

@nausiyan I'll try to keep track of the developments. But I think it will take a long time before it's refined enough to be useful. Just like nuclear fusion.
