Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent studies and analyses in the field of sustainable energy harvesting are discussed in this insightful book. Early 21st century has witnessed many developments in the field of sustainable energy harvesting technologies. Since then, many such technologies have evolved, advanced and even been successfully developed into hardware models for preserving the operational lifetime of low power electronic devices like mobile gadgets, smart wireless sensor networks, etc. Energy harvesting is a technique that harvests renewable energy which is freely and easily available from the environment to recharge or to put used energy back into the energy storage devices without the inconvenience of disturbing, or even discontinuing the routine operation of the particular application. Due to the information, experience and understanding gained in the past few years, there have been some major developments in the research of sustainable EH technology. This book looks at various features of sustainable EH technology and its future implications.

Since then, many EH technologies have evolved, advanced and even been successfully developed into hardware prototypes for sustaining the operational lifetime of low?power electronic devices like mobile gadgets, smart wireless sensor networks, etc. Energy harvesting is a technology that harvests freely available renewable energy from the ambient environment to recharge or put used energy back into the energy storage devices without the hassle of disrupting or even discontinuing the normal operation of the specific application. With the prior knowledge and experience developed over a decade ago, progress of sustainable EH technologies research is still intact and ongoing. EH technologies are starting to mature and strong synergies are formulating with dedicate application areas. To move forward, now would be a good time to setup a review and brainstorm session to evaluate the past, investigate and think through the present and understand and plan for the future sustainable energy harvesting technologies.

Book excerpt: This book contributes to understanding the development and application of green energy solutions. The term ""green energy"" is widely used today to indicate sustainable energy sources with zero or minimal environmental and economic impact, obtained from various renewable energy sources. The contents presented in this book deal with different solutions, from small-scale applications (thermoelectric energy harvesting) to energy efficiency in buildings with local renewable energy production (also in critical seismic sites), local energy systems (smart energy management of storage and complex interactions), exploitation of biomasses from agricultural wastes, and voluntary certifications associated with energy trading in large energy systems. These aspects mark a more sustainable evolution of the society with wider green energy usage.
