Another way to reduce costs is plant growth to supply LED lights.

ScienceDaily daily, a Plant-e company founded by researchers at the University of Wageningen, Holland, has developed a new technology that can continuously generate electricity from growing plants and light the city's LED street lights at night. At present, the technology has been opened in two locals.

The technology of plant power generation is suitable for roofs of urban buildings and houses. According to the introduction, the new technology is based on the natural process, capturing electrons from the soil and generating electricity by the continuous growth of plants. This method will not damage plants, but only light, carbon dioxide and water. When plants grow, they produce more sugar than their own needs. These excess sugars are recovered and decomposed by the surrounding soil, releasing protons and electrons. The researchers placed electrodes into the soil to capture electricity from electricity.

According to a recent report by physicists' organizing network recently, more than 300 LED lights in hem rag city were lit by the company's "starry sky" project. Moreover, plant power is also used in the headquarters of the company in Wageningen, Holland. These two projects are all used to local aquatic plants.

The company's new technology and equipment can already be used in existing rice fields, and all kinds of wetlands are more suitable. Engineers can lay pipes below the level of wetlands, such as peat swamps, mangroves, rice fields or deltas.

The company was founded in 2009 by David Stehlik and Makilin Held of Wageningen University in Holland. It is a company that develops potential energy, mainly for plant power generation projects.

The ultimate goal of the company is to develop the project to all parts of the world. The company's founder said: "one day, this technology can provide electricity for the poor areas, and there are abundant plant world, such as rice or nearby wetlands. If we can figure out how to operate in a low cost way, it will mean that this new clean energy will bring a gospel to people in the power shortage area, which is estimated to benefit nearly 25% of the world's population.
