Overview of the Energy Harvesting Market and Energy Storage Market

The process of energy harvesting essentially entails collecting energy from a specific source and converting this energy into the electrical form, which can further used for powering various devices. Energy can be harvested from a myriad of sources such as heat, light, electromagnetic waves, and vibration. It is possible to bypass the usage of batteries in the energy harvesting process. Devices that can be powered using energy harvesting and energy storage techniques include laptops, wristwatches, satellites, mobile phones, everyday consumer electronics (calculators, piezo lighters, e-books etc), as well as high-tech military and medical devices. The energy harvesting and energy storage market holds solutions that can make many of these devices entirely self-sufficient.

Given the wide applicability of energy harvesting and energy storage technologies, it is evident that this market will gain traction in the coming years. This holds true especially in the backdrop of a growing emphasis on new and green energy sources.

There is no disputing the fact that energy harvesting and energy storage technologies can change the very future of vehicles and power distribution and consumption. However, the one segment that is really thriving in this market is that of consumer electronics. Numerous energy harvesters have been integrated with consumer electronics, and the encouraging results are driving the growth of the energy harvesting and energy storage market further.

Other names for energy harvesting are energy scavenging (which is composed of electrodynamics, photovoltaics, piezo electrics, and thermovoltaics) as well as power harvesting. All of these little advancements have driven the market to a tipping point and the next few years will prove to be decisive for the energy harvesting market and energy storage market.
