The new invention produces up to 347 watts of power per cubic meter.

The new development has been unveiled by a team in China that boasts that it doubles the previous record for power generated per volume. It does this by capturing the energy that results from the static electricity that is produced when different materials rub together.This phenomenon is known as the triboelectric effect, and devices that make use of this effect to produce energy are referred to as “nanogenerators.

However, the new research proposes to link thousands of triboelectric nanogenerators together in long chains to generate enough power to make the devices efficient for wave power.
