Science-Accepted “Free Energy” 4
Thermoelectric, Piezoelectric
• -->>continued: FREE ENERGY TYPES; increasing actively commercialized
exceptions, Micro Current Energy Harvesters: 1 ThermoElectric:
• Relatively significant penetration for mainstream industrial monitoring use
last several yrs(Micropelt, EnOcean, Laired Technologies, Marlow Industries,
Perpetua Power Source+),fair number of bio sensor focus companies(MC10
inc+), thin micro device for wearables(Thermogen Technologies+), but super
high density harvester by combo with solar in wristwatch format is shelved?
(EnergyBionics Carbon: Ebersold+). Low cost printed super thin material that
is capable of micro current to industrial size electricity conversion from
heat(Otego GmbH+). Overall this sector is filled with many players existing in
West.
2 # Piezoelectricity/Acoustoelectric effect(material directly produces
electricity when deformed, most widely commercialized in microcurrent
generator types), Often use Barium Titanate (BaTiO3) or Zinc Oxide (ZnO),
PZT: Lead zirconate titanate. Following elements are often relevant to
majority of microcurrent generation by ambient scavenging(other than piezo
methods). -->>cont:
