Researchers develop artificial 'power plants' in the form of tiny leaf-shapes to harness energy from the wind and rain.

Researchers have unveiled a development in the realm of renewable energy with the creation of artificial "power plants," according to a new study published in ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering. These innovative power generators take the form of tiny, leaf-shaped devices that effectively convert the energy from wind and rain into electricity. While traditional methods, such as solar panels and wind turbines, rely on singular sources for energy production, the artificial power plants aim to maximize efficiency by tapping into both wind and rain.
