Looking for alternate sources of energy? Look no further than the water in your home, to generate power on a small scale.
Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Guwahati researchers have developed materials to produce small amount of energy from water.
These new ways of producing energy can be employed in households to support the concept of decentralisation of energy sources. The study aimed to find ways to generate power from both stagnant and flowing water.
A research team led by Kalyan Raidongia, department of chemistry, IIT Guwahati, along with his research team comprising Jumi Deka, Kundan Saha, Suresh Kumar and Hemant Kumar Srivastava, worked on this research.
