Scientists make incredible breakthrough with hard-to-believe 'bending ice' material: 'One step closer to reality'

For most people, ice means danger, slick roads, broken pipes, and power outages. But a new discovery from researchers in China suggests that this common nuisance could soon become a surprising ally in the global energy transition. Scientists at Xi'an Jiaotong University have invented a type of "bending ice" that generates electricity when flexed, potentially transforming frozen water into a clean power source.The study, published in Nature Mater…
