Clean, Limitless Energy from Graphene - Vaktus - 12-02-2017
Apparently, a professor from University of Arkansas created a source of clean energy from converting the vibrations of graphene to electricity.

Totally not on board with the use of the term "limitless" but it's an intriguing idea. When I get time I'd really like to read their paper though because in the video (if I've done the conversion correctly) he's claiming that a 1m2 sheet of this material could continually produce 100KW of energy from just ambient conditions.
