Abstract
A technology that newly attract attention in the area of energy-related study is the energy harvesting(or scavenging) technology. In this paper, the performance of power generation for the energy harvesting block with a combination of piezoelectric technology and electromagnetic technology among various energy harvesting technologies was investigated. The goal of this study is to evaluate on the applicability of our developed energy harvesting block into the field of urban & housing. First, we evaluated the performance of power generation for the multi-layer energy harvester at laboratory scale. Second, we described the features of our developed prototype module that includes amplification technologies to improve power density per module and evaluated the performance of power generation for the energy harvesting block in a variety of ways. From the test results, the developed product increased the performance of power generation up to 255% or 505% compared to the existing product and its superiority were shown. Finally, we suggested the direction for the improvement of the energy harvesting block module.
