Two Research Groups at London's Cambridge University-- the 'Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council' (EPSRC) and the 'Design in Science' Project-- have come together to create a table, alongside a series of product concepts, that integrates biophotovoltaic (BPV) technology. BVP devices generate renewable energy through the photosynthetic processes of living organisms such as algae and moss, in a way that scientists estimate will become a competitive alternative to solar panels within the next five to ten years.
