The idea is to stimulate particular microorganisms in the soil by using buried electrodes to receive electricity from solar panels.
"The possible scale of that impact is really exciting," lead researcher Dr. Michael Harbottle of Cardiff University told. "To see something that's really quite novel, possibly having a big impact, is what's driving us."
There are numerous instances of people successfully conducting experiments by simply adding soil to a jar, adding a few electrodes, and connecting them, the scientist claims. He claims that this acetate functions as a chemical energy reserve and is the same type of molecule as one could find in vinegar but without the acid. When necessary, a separate circuit is activated, causing a different group of bacteria to become active and begin breaking down the acetate.
