The method involved a tower, a means of shunting off a large portion of the incoming energy, and a capacitor to store the rest. .
Since the late 1980s, there have been several attempts to investigate the possibility of harvesting lightning energy. A single bolt of carries a relatively large amount of energy. .
To facilitate the harvesting of lightning, a -induced (LIPC) could theoretically be used to influence lightning to strike in a. .
A technology capable of harvesting lightning energy would need to be able to rapidly capture the high power involved in a lightning bolt. Additionally, lightning is sporadic, and therefore energy would have to be collected and stored; it is difficult to convert high-voltage.
