Electrical Power & Test
LEVERAGING THE POWER OF NEXT GENERATION ELECTRICAL DESIGN
With an estimated 1.2 billion 5G devices coming online by 2025, supplying, transferring and storing power for all those devices is becoming a major challenge. Utilities are working to implement Internet of Energy (IoE) technologies to improve power distribution, and communications and more, including management of their own systems.
Electrical Power & Test Forward-Future Innovation
Across the industry, leaders are also being tasked with finding new ways to supply sustainable power to the many 5G IoT devices, as well as to preserve the spectrum required in order to achieve delivery. Luckily, exciting new innovations are emerging that promise to boost efficiency and harvest energy from multiple sources, including kinetic, bio, wind, solar and more.
Electro Rent is ready with test solutions that support innovation in smarter, more cost-efficient ways.
Energy Efficiency
Monitoring energy use throughout complex modern industrial environments allows you to understand your energy use and helps you pinpoint opportunities to reduce energy consumption. This keeps energy costs down and can help you towards your environmental management goals.
Radio Frequency Energy Harvesting (RF-EH)
Energy harvesting has been around for several years and is important to conserving resources and cutting costs. Ambient RF energy—energy converted from commercial radar and microwave sources—has potential to power wireless sensor nodes in consumer devices and wireless networks, or to recharge batteries installed in difficult to reach locations. Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) takes the application even further by using the same RF signal to transmit both power and data.
Nanogenerators
Nanogenerators, which convert ambient energy from thermal or mechanical sources into usable current, are energy-harvesting inventions with wide application across the IoT. Easily fabricated, lightweight and small, nanogenerators can be used as sensors and to replace batteries for IoT devices in medicine, automotive, consumer, environmental and more. Of the three available types, triboelectric nanogenerators appear to show the most promise in producing higher voltage and power density.
