ABSTRACT
Among citrus fruits, lemon is widely used as a low-power electrical source. Although, it can generate a potential difference, this phenomenon is only sustainable for few days, and no other alternative organism has been reported to provide a similar potential with longer duration. This study reports the discovery of living banana plant as an inexpensive, reliable, stable, and long-lasting power. A Zn anode and Cu cathode are inserted into banana plant to extract electricity, and the organic compounds of plant act as electrolyte. This new discovery may introduce an era of providing renewable energy to who live in proximity to banana plantations.
