Using 5G Network For Electricity

in STEMGeeks5 years ago

5G is unintentionally giving us an opportunity to mine electricity. The frequencies the network uses are full of energy just begging to be used. And scientists might have cracked how to do exactly that.

I like the idea of mining electricity from transmitted 5G signal, but you can only get a fraction out of it. To be able to get a fully usable amount of electricity, you need to be able to create a device that is highly sensitive and reactive to electromagnetism in free space.

I couldn't agree more with your statement. What are your thought about harvesting energy from natural occurring electromagnetic waves?

I once heard a story (not sure if its true) that someone put large coils underneath high voltage electricity wires running through their property. They were able to generate/mine the electricity from these coils. The electricity company thought it was theft, as opposed to using a free resource as it does put some load on the network. I wonder where the line between theft and using energy from the air really is? wrapping a coil around the electricity wire on the street is probably theft, but a small coil to power a small portable IoT device... now that seems more reasonable.
