Nano leaves have the potential to significantly increase renewable energy production. They can harvest light, heat, and wind energy through photovoltaic, thermovoltaic, and piezoelectric cells embedded between two thin, conductive layers. This design allows one nano leaf to produce 1.2V at 100mA of power. A tree with 1,000 nano leaves could produce electricity for an effective cost of Rs. 17,000. Nano leaves could boost renewable energy production from 9.7% to 57% and have applications for powering homes, vehicles, and infrastructure in both urban and rural areas. They represent a promising new renewable energy source.

3. Abstract
In the years ahead we will witness a world where there will
be scarcity for energy resources.
recently with the emerging nanotechnology, scientists are
working on the new concept called the nanoleaves that
will help producing electricity.
It can serve the future demands.
In this paper I intend to bring to light on how exactly the
the nano leave can be achieved and what are the future
aspects.

4. Why nano leaves ?
Nano leaves are the only resource which converts light
energy, Heat energy, and wind energy into the Electricity.
Other sources like wind mills and solar panels are limited
up to air and solar energy respectively.
Solar panels converts sun light into 90kwh per year.
Nano trees converts (light, Heat & wind) into 130 kwh per
year.
Solar energy+wind +Heat energy=Electric energy

Why nano leaves ?

6. Are we witnessing a true revolution in
renewable energy sources?!!!!
Nano leaves are One of the Best renewable
energy Sources.

7. Why Nano leaves:
Renewable Energy= 9.7%
Renewable Energy after Nano leaves tree in each house = 57%

8. CONSTRUCTION OF NANO LEAVES
Two thin film conducting layers.
One layer should be positive other should be negative.
Keep positive layer over the negative with a very minute
gap to create an electric field just like a battery.

9. Now Insert the piezo electric, Thermo voltaic and photo
voltaic cells inside the two conducting layers.

10. ACTUAL SCHEMATIC VIEW

11. HOW IT WORKS?
When Sun light falls on the nano leaf, the photons
are absorbed into the nano leaf, their energy causes the
electrons to become free. The electrons moves towards
the bottom of the nano leaf and exit through the
connecting petiole(leaf stalk),This flow of electrons is
referred to as electricity.

12. In the same manner when the environment is hot, the
thermo voltaic layer produces the electrical energy.
If leaf is getting stress due to wind or rain, then piezo
electric layer produces the electricity.
If other type of light falls on the nano leaf, then photo
voltaic produces the electricity.
The output of each layer is connected to the single
storing device at the bottom of the tree.
Thus in our nano leaves tree three effects are united in
one leaf.

13. PRODUCTION ANALYSIS
As we go for the production its one leaf can
produce 1.20 V with a current of 100mA. So the total
power produced by the one leaf
Power = 1.25*100
=0.125W

14. COST ANALYSIS
For one leaf the effective cost = Rs. 17/- only
So if a tree consist of 1000 leaves then
effective cost = 17 x 1000
= Rs. 17,000/- only
In comparison to other sources it is much cost
effective.

16. Further Interest in This Work:
To Use this electricity in driving the car.
By Increasing the dimensions of leaves to increase the
production of electricity.

17. APPLICATIONS
• Urban and Rural
• Recreational parks, city parks
• Mountainous regions
• Coastlines
• Highways
• Airports
• Deserts
• Private gardens
• De-forested areas
• Areas of commercial interest; Islands.

18. CONCLUSION
Concerns over pollution, environmental degradation
and resource depletion has lead to an Increasing awareness
of the importance of developing responsible means of
harvesting environmental energies.
Nano leaves technology can desalinate sea-water,
filter CO2 out of the air, make hydro-fuel, power trains,
recharge electric cars, provide wireless Communications, or
just power your home.
