Klebsiella electrica is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacterium of the genus Klebsiella. It was formerly known as Raoultella electrica before being reclassified in 2022 based on phylogenomic evidence. The type strain of K. electrica was isolated from anodic biofilms of a microbial fuel cell fed with glucose.
