3 What is Energy Harvesting Energy Harvesting (aka Energy Scavenging) The process by which unused ambient energy is captured and converted into useful energy (most likely electricity) Micro Power Generation The generation of power in the nw- W-mW range by means of harvesting, microengine, fuel cells or other means (Source: Holst Center / IMEC) 5 Examples of Ambient Resource Geothermal power station in Iceland Solar power plant in US Wind farm in Sweden Dammed hydrofacility in Taiwan (Source: Wikipedia, Feitsui Reservoir Administration) 6

4 Examples of Ambient Resource for Energy Harvesting Pretty much the same as those for large power plants solar, kinetic, thermal, But not a solution for the global energy issues not an energy source for most consumer electronics (yet) to replace the battery in portable/wearable devices or distributed systems 7 WSN, IoT, Wearable Devices, and Such Massive Distributed System (Source: 8

5 Sensor Node Micro sensor Micro controller RF Energy management ambient energy Energy harvester Energy storage 9 Application Structure monitoring Industrial monitoring Building/home automation Health monitoring 10
