Harnessing the Power of Black Holes: A Revolutionary Energy Solution

TL;DR Summary
Scientists propose two methods for harnessing the energy of black holes. The first method involves "charging" the black hole by injecting it with electrically charged particles until it repels additional charges, effectively becoming "fully charged." The second method involves extracting energy in the form of paired particles that form spontaneously in the presence of an electric field. Theoretical calculations suggest that black hole batteries could have an efficiency 250 times higher than that of an atomic bomb. These proposals provide insights into the intersection of quantum mechanics and gravity.
