HighDro Power converts falling wastewater into electricity

Yesterday we looked at technology being developed to generate electricity from sewage using bacteria.

Invented by Tom Broadbent, an industrial design student at Leicester’s De Montfort University (DMU), the HighDro Power harnesses the energy from falling waste in the soil pipes of high-rise buildings and converts it to electricity.
