An incredible inventor
What would you do without electricity? When she
was 15 years old, Hannah Herbst had a penfriend
in Ethiopia in Africa. Hannah was really surprised to
find that her penfriend’s home didn’t have electric
lights. However, in many areas of the world that is
not unusual – there are over 1.3 billion people in the
world who don’t have electricity. Hannah was
inspired by her penfriend’s problems to help.
After investigating, she discovered that most people
live near water. About 40% of people in the world
live less than 100 km from an ocean and there are
only about 10% who live over 10 km from a river or
lake. Hannah worked hard and designed a simple
machine to produce electricity from oceans. She
called it the ‘BEACON’. Ocean water moves
through the device and a generator at the end
creates energy people can use.
