Energy Sources Used for Harvesting
1. Presence of the streams of wasted energy that could be recovered and re-utilized (such as heat or vibrations).
2. Presence of the streams of energies in systems that are stand alone and cannot be powered by conventional sources, or the powering is too expensive.
3. Self-powered solutions operating on batteries that could be more conveniently supplied by energy harvesters.

Many heat energy sources are currently well re-used via traditional heat exchangers and accumulators. This is one of themain guidelines of process engineering. However, some of the heat sources could be utilized even more deeper.

Energy Harvesting Materials – Drivers
Small size
Note: Size of the ball indicatesimportance or weight of the factor
Small dimensions of mostof the energy harvesters allow fortheir easy and noninvasive
application in various solutions.
Popular batteries cannot operate at high temperatures.
Thus energy harvesters are goodcandidate to be used instead of them.
Applied energy harvesters
providing easy to use and maintain
solutions.
Energy harvesters can operatefor long times. Despite of their highinitIal costs they exclude the need of
frequent system maintenance or replacement.
Demand for reliable powering devices with long
lifetimes
Market need for quiet solutions with no
moving parts.
