Post: Article on Energy Harvesting

In a world where the Internet of Things is becoming ubiquitous, the quest for a sustainable and efficient energy source has become crucial. That’s where Energy Harvesting comes in. This innovative technology offers the promise of freeing the IoT from its dependence on batteries and cables, by harnessing the energy resources available in our environment.

What exactly is energy harvesting ?

Energy harvesting is an innovative approach to collecting small amounts of energy from a variety of available environmental sources. à Sunlight, wind, heat, vibrations, movement, etc. These energy sources are then collected by an energy harvesting device, making it possible to power a small electronic device or a wireless sensor network.

This technology represents an innovative alternative to traditional batteries, which can cause problems of frequent replacement, costly maintenance and high environmental impact.

Energy recovery devices are specially designed to deliver small amounts of electrical current to ultra-low-power electronic circuits. What makes this technology particularly interesting is its ability to provide continuous, autonomous power to a wide range of electronic devices.

What are the environmental benefits of this technology ?

Energy Harvesting offers an environmentally friendly alternative to the traditional use of batteries. By harnessing renewable, natural energy sources, it reduces the carbon footprint and environmental waste associated with their production and disposal.

It’s easy to see the day-to-day benefits of using this type of solution, both in terms of use and ecological impact. However, it’s important to note that this technology is generally best suited to low-power applications.

For example, ATIM Radiocommunication, in collaboration with TCT, recently launched a new autonomous, communicating current sensor solution based on this technology.
