  1. Hi, 

    Anyone who sees this message should follow it carefully. Because it can help solve the problem of electricity shortage.

    Power generation is not limited to water, wind, energy, sunlight, waves, and waste recycling. There are other ways to do this.

    Three years ago, I wrote an article about charging electric and hybrid cars through the engine and wheels of a car, and it was approved, but I researched and found that electricity generated by the movement of electrons in a conductive or conductive body in the same direction. It is clear.

    Recently, researchers were able to generate electricity from salt.

    Therefore, according to the location of each region, we must be able to generate electricity from the existing conditions and facilities. For example, in Arizona, electricity is generated through salt, in wind environments from wind turbines, in the deserts through solar energy, in the oceans through solar batteries, as well as from coastal waves and ....
