Implementing an energy harvesting technology within the concept of Smart city

Abstract

Smart city is a global goal of big cities, it is an emerging concept, which requires different research activities in many different directions to create an urban infrastructure and, what is even more important, transform minds. The topic of energetics is one of the baseline directions for creating Smart city infrastructure. The concept of energy harvesting becomes in this term quite important and deserves specific attention. This research paper is aiming to highlight an energy harvesting problem in the context of smart city and to make an attempt to propose a potential solution, a technology to be implemented to tackle that problem.
