Compost, sludge, urine, plants - what if we could use all organic waste as sustainable energy sources? Well, we can. With microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology, which the European Commission has already named one of the “100 most radical innovation breakthroughs for the future” in 2019. The “Living Light” project aims to ensure that this innovative technology receives the attention it deserves: in the form of a designer light for both indoor and outdoor use, for example in parking lots. The microbial fuel cells in this project use microbes found in the soil to generate the energy that lights up the lamp. The Living Light received an Honorary Mention at the STARTS Prize 2021.
