    Yup. There are reed-like wind capture devices that generate piezoelectricity from compression. The same technology is being implemented in some nations to capture pressure energy on roadways and paths.

      Ah yes, the next solar frickin’ roadways. No this isn’t implemented on any scale and it’s right next to perpetuum mobile’s in terms of magical thinking needed.

          The one from eevblog? Unfortunately not. But I did watch a few thunderf00t videos before he dove right into the “anti-sjw” scene 12(?) years ago

            Same, this is such a common tale. “I used to watch TF, until he radicalized himself.” Man, he made some good content back then and completely crashed it when he dove head first into Gamergate BS.

            His favoured enemy now is Elon Musk btw., the new content might be worth watching. I’m just a little apprehensive this might drive the algorithm to present me with anti-sjw videos I don’t want to watch.

      That makes sense.

      Besides that, does solar power use steam? I would assume not, at least not directly.

        Photovoltaics do not. But here are solar powered steam generators
