A century after Nikola Tesla sketched a turbine with no blades, researchers are now using that same counterintuitive design to pull useful power out of static electricity. The latest experiments pair ...

The demand for energy is ever-increasing across various industries. In recent decades, scientists have explored the electrostatic potential of ...

This is the first study to demonstrate electricity generation via the particulate static effect by using a Tesla turbine structure. The proposed device can be operated solely with practical compressed ...

Researchers have introduced a contactless electricity generation method using only practical compressed air and ...

One key to harvesting the ocean’s clean energy—at least a little of it—may lie in static electricity. A team of researchers in Portugal has now successfully used it to run small generators inside a ...
