  • Publication number: 20250125654
    Abstract: An energy collection system may collect and use the energy generated by an electric field. Collection electrodes are positioned relative to a planetary body. One or more of the collection electrodes may positioned substantially on, above, or below the planetary body. Example embodiments comprise a power processing module. One or more collection electrodes may comprise a collection device with microscopic points of a cross-section of the collection device exposed to the environment.

  • Publication number: 20250126696
    Abstract: An energy collection system may collect and use the energy generated by an electric field. Collection devices are suspended from a support system. The collection devices are configured in one or more fluffed configurations. The support system is electrically connected to a load by a connecting wire. The collection devices may be made of any conducting material, but graphene, boron, silicene, carbon, and graphite are preferred. Diodes may be used to restrict the backflow or loss of energy.

  • Publication number: 20240195328
    Abstract: In example embodiments, an electrostatic motor is enclosed in an hermetically sealed container in which the internal air environment can be stabilized and controlled to enhance the performance of the electrostatic motor. Performance can be greatly enhanced in terms of motor efficiency, performance, longevity, reduced electrical input power and/or input voltage with improved kinetic power output. The hermetically sealed container may preserve parameters of the gas condition inside the container, such as, for example, to a specified humidity level, and/or gas pressure, and other parameters associated with gaseous environments. In an example embodiment, a gas may be added into the enclosure to enhance the performance.
