TL;DR Summary

Scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have discovered a way to create electricity out of thin air using a process called the "generic Air-gen effect". The material used to extract electricity from the air needs to have nanopores less than 100 nanometers in diameter. The researchers are working on building a man-made cloud that can duplicate the process of lightning. This discovery could open a wide door for harvesting clean electricity from thin air and have profound effects on the future of renewable energy.
