Are electricity-eating bacteria the next big thing in green fuel? Editor's Note: This story is republished with permission from Txchnologist, a digital magazine that follows innovation in science and technology. There's a large and growing list of renewable energy projects pumping out cleaner electricity these days. Photovoltaic panels produce direct current and solar concentrators drive steam turbines using sunlight. Wind turbines churning out megawatts of power dot the landscape of many countries. Other projects are looking to light communities through tides, running rivers and even the heat of the Earth.

Creating current is all well and good for energizing homes, businesses and even motor vehicles, but when it comes to flying airplanes or turning the screws on big ships, batteries storing alternative-energy-produced electricity just can't deliver the power needed yet. That's why these large machines still need combustible liquids such as diesel, aviation fuel and bunker oil that pack a bunch of energy into small volumes to drive their engines.
