Session, they will provide an overview of Solar Window™ technology development and business objectives, discuss overall photovoltaic technology advancement, and share perspectives on improving building efficiency and energy autonomy. Peter Harrop highlights some trends in harvesting electric energy from photovoltaics, thermoelectric, and active suspension systems. A team of scientists from University of Colorado Denver has developed a novel energy system that increases the amount of energy harvested from microbial fuel cells (MFCs) by more than 70 times. On land, its GenShock even improves ride control and handling by adjusting suspension damping dynamically. "The idea is to be able to run applications autonomously, remotely, maybe without a battery forever," says Perzow, in a bit of hyperbole that's common in energy harvesting circles. Applications being trialled include cars, trucks, military vehicles, construction vehicles and industrial and marine applications such as power for pure electric autonomous underwater vehicles AUVs. Joseph Elementary School in Lacolle, Quebec recently realized the benefits of energy harvesting when it retrofitted its classroom temperature controllers using a system developed by EnOcean and Regulvar Inc., a maker of HVAC products. Harvesting ocean thermal energy – SOLO-TREC autonomous underwater vehicle. After all, this switch is wireless, battery-less, energy-harvesting, and parting of the “Internet of Things,” making it one of the most high-tech — and on trend — gadgets at the show. The 4th Annual Energy Harvesting & Storage USA is the world's largest conference and exhibition covering the very latest commercial opportunities, markets and the systems that need energy harvesting to power sensors.
