Inventions from innovative scientists have given us hopes for the future which is able to solve the growing energy crisis, although the invention seems wierd but it carries tremendous power to change the course of events and how we do things.
Scientists have proven and confirmed that the natural movement of bacteria is able to power microscopic wind farms

HOW DOES THIS WORK

Researchers from Oxford university have used computer simulations to show that dense active matter such as bacteria can be used to turn cylindrical rotors and provide steady power source.

They placed a lattice of 64 symmetric microporous into active fluid
They saw that the rotors began to spin in anti clockwise direction just like that of wind farm.

Bacteria can actually power smartphones they could form biological power plants that would be engines for devices.
