UK Startup is Making Electricity From Bacteria in the Soil – Maybe Your Garden Will Power Your Home Some Day
A UK startup is developing a battery that generates electricity using bacteria found in soil, offering a potential long-term, low-maintenance energy source. The technology works by harnessing natural microbial activity to produce a continuous, albeit small, flow of power. The company aims to integrate these devices with existing renewable systems, providing energy even during periods of low sunlight. This innovation could eventually allow homes to be partially powered by their own gardens.
