Abstract

The increasing demand for energy due to rapid population growth has led to a focus on renewable resources as the primary solution. Non-renewable energy sources result in harmful gas emissions during energy production, necessitating the development of sustainable alternatives. This study explores the generation of electricity from living plants using photosynthesis. Through primary experiments, the electrical energy intensity from living plants is determined. The energy is harnessed by the flow of ions from electrodes inserted into the plant roots. Various plant species and electrode combinations are investigated, producing different voltages suitable for powering low-power devices like LED lights, digital clocks, and calculators.
