Electricity from rain

23 January 2008

Scientists from CEA/Leti-Minatec in Grenoble have recently developed a system that recovers energy from falling raindrops and turns it into electricity

The system works with raindrops ranging in diameter from 1 to 5 mm, and simulations show that it's possible to recover up to 12 milliwatts from one of the larger downpour drops.
