PINUSSome researchers have found that there is enough electricity in the trees to supply power for electronic circuits. This discovery could be a way to make your home computer can be supplied energy from trees planted in the garden behind the house.

This research is based on previous findings, when years ago some researchers found that trees can produce voltages up to 200 milivolt when an electrode installed in the tree and the other electrode planted in the ground. The technology is designed to function as a power sensor supplied forests in this way. But so far no one has tried to apply these findings to develop power plants a tree.
