Introduction
Introduction Energy, as we all know, cannot be created nor destroyed. It is an element that is so essential in life that it is needed as we continuously live our lives. Due to the on-going evolution of mans mind and imagination, we advance level by level in using different materials around us to improvise a better way to live. With a fruit, a Miliameter, a copper and zinc nail, and alligator clips, we can create an alternative for batteries since chemicals and wastes used to create these are very harmful to the societys health and to the environment. The researchers would hope that this research would be a feasible and reliable topic to help reduce pollution and usage of daily foods to be boosted.
Objectives
The main purpose of this experiment is to design a power source wherein people would be able to access electricity despite the absence of a battery. With that the researchers will: Create a power source that would be able to provide an environmental friendly energy.
Study Materials
Materials The researchers, in order to conduct the study, will need the following materials to make such experiment: Potato main source of energy/current Pennies conductor of the current from the power source Zinc Plated Nails gate of the pathway of the currents so that the current would transfer to the gadget
Procedures
1. Cut the potato in half, then cut a small slit into each half, large enough to slide a penny inside. 2. Wrap some copper wire around each penny a few times. Use a different piece of wire for each penny. 3. Stick the pennies in the slits you cut into the potato halves. 4. Wrap some of the third copper wire around one of the zinc-plated nails and stick the nail into one of the potato halves. 5. Take the wire connected to the penny in the half of potato with the nail and wrap some of it around the second nail. Stick that second nail into the other potato half. 6. When you connect the two loose ends of the copper wires to the light bulb or LED it will light up

Conclusion
The researchers, therefore conclude, that the using potato as a substitute for a battery was succesful in obtaining both the foresaw results and the desired outcome. It is also concluded that the experiment can powerup different devices such as wall clocks, LED lights and calculators. And it provided a general information that benefited people inside this researchs scope.
