A Review on Energy Harvesting Potential from Living Plants: Future Energy Resource

Abstract

Renewable energies (RES) has been discussed and explored by researchers in the past decades, has proved that it can decline the capital cost of electricity generated. Such sources such as solar energy and wind energy continue to take advantage in development, securing long-term sustainable energy for the future. Demand for these renewable enrgy leads to a reduction of pollution and leaning towards green energy environment. Hence, as the live tree has been discovered to be able to generate a weak source of electricity, it cannot be overlooked as those potential can be used as power source for low-powered devices. Thus, this paper reviews the concept of living plant energy harvest and the real-life prectice of the technique. Living plant energy overview is also done together for future challenges.
