Global Markets, Technologies and Devices for Energy Harvesting
LONDON, July 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --
Report Scope
The report presents forecasts for energy harvesters for 2018 through 2023, with a base year of 2017, on a volume and value basis. Market forecasts in terms of value are presented in U.S. dollars, while forecasts in terms of volume are presented in thousands of units. Thousands was selected as a denomination because shipment volumes for some categories would otherwise appear to be insignificant. It is important to note that energy harvesters can power wireless sensor nodes, which will ship by the billions in the future. Energy harvesters will power several additional device categories that will not be as prolific in number as wireless nodes, but which will experience tremendous growth as well.

Summary
Energy harvesting, also known as energy scavenging or power harvesting, is a growing market for the conversion of waste energy, energy that is otherwise wasted in the form of heat. Energy harvesting technologies convert waste heat from various sources, store the converted energy in small and wireless autonomous devices, and use it in wireless sensor networks and other applications.
The energy harvesting concept is decades old and dates to the waterwheel and windmill, for which people have sought ways to store the generated energy.With the increase in power consumption around the world, many companies and research institutions are developing technologies to convert waste heat back to energy and to increase the efficiency of energy usage.
The earliest application for energy harvesting was the collection of ambient power from electromagnetic radiation (EMR) for use in a radio.
Reasons for Doing the Study
The reasons for updating the report are consistent with the reasons for creating the original report.Though still new, energy harvesting is poised for high double-digit growth over the next five years.
It presents opportunities that are unique in their diversity and marketability.However, the key driver for the proliferation of energy harvesters is the use of nonconventional materials in mainstream semiconductor fabrication technologies.
The last three years have, to an extent, crystallized the shape of the limitless possibilities created by energy harvesters, whereby every naturally occurring, energygenerating source has the potential to be used in numerous applications.The amount of innovative activity associated with energy harvesters has increased considerably.
The looming energy crisis and the global emphasis on the exploration of renewable energy sources have lent a sense of urgency to the development of the market.
This report examines the many factors shaping the energy harvesting market.Based on these factors and their interactions, the report attempts to present a snapshot of the present-day market in the form of a qualitative and quantitative analysis.
It then attempts to forecast how the market is likely to develop in the next five years.
In addition to the attractiveness of the energy harvesting market itself, there are more important reasons for exploring this subject. Energy harvesting finds application in many industries and disciplines such as energy management, instrumentation, wireless and wire-line communication, materials, nanotechnology and regulation.
The report examines the energy harvesting market with respect to the following key parameters:
- Principal energy sources.
- End applications.
- Regional dynamics.
- Changes in average selling prices (ASPs).
The report presents an overview of the interplay between application categories and energy sources as well as between application categories and regions. It places one in the context of the other.
