Rain Energy Could Become A Renewable Fuel - Hydrogen News
2020年2月20日 · Rain energy production involves harnessing the kinetic energy from falling raindrops so that it can be converted into usable electric energy. The idea behind this concept is that surface charge builds on a device as it is struck by the falling raindrops. That surface charge is then discharged as the water spreads and connects two electrodes.
