Researchers have developed a system able to recover the vibration energy from a falling raindrop as it impacts a piezoelectric structure.
The CEA/Leti-Minatec R&D institute scientists found that the system could recover up to 12 milliwatts from one large raindrop.
The system could become an alternative to solar power systems in raining outdoor environments.
