In day-to-day life of human being, electricity is playing a major and indispensable role. Therefore, the demand of electrical energy is an emergent problem which is creating several threats in the earth’s environment. To treat with this situation, various types of non-conventional and renewable energy sources are being developed throughout the world. In the presented research papers, an influence is given to generate small amount of DC voltage, from xerophytic living plants. Such kind of energy source is eco-friendly, non-conventional and renewable type of energy source. Likewise, the current research work of electricity generation from living plants has wide future scope for development in the field of renewable and non-conventional energy sources. The undertaken research work describes the design aspect of low power energy source wherein various xerophytic living plants are utilized as natural electrolytes with modified electrodes and cells. These electrodes and cells are designed and developed by studying various electrical parameters of conducting materials. Particularly, Silver-Zinc (Ag-Zn) cells of various structures like normal, corrugated and grooved are used. The comparative performance of these cells has been studied and presented throughout this research paper.
