Energy harvesting is the use of e.g. thermocouples or piezoelectric generators for the conversion of ambient energy resulting from human activity and environmental energy flows in the form of waste heat, movement and vibration, into usable electrical energy. In the described project traceable methods for measuring energy, power and efficiency are being developed.
