 To deal with limitations of energy storage systems such as the limited lifetime (the time from when an IoT device is deployed to when all the energy stored in its energy storage system is depleted or consumed), maintenance complexity, and scalability, energy harvesting systems are incorporated into IoT systems to harvest energy from the environment. The energy can be harvested from the ambient environment (energy sources naturally present in the immediate environment of the device, e.g., solar, wind, thermal, radiofrequency energy sources) or from external sources (the source of energy is from external systems, e.g., mechanical or human body) and then converted into electrical energy to power IoT devices or storage in an energy storage system for later usage.  To deal with limitations of energy storage systems such as the limited lifetime (the time from when an IoT device is deployed to when all the energy stored in its energy storage system is depleted or consumed), maintenance complexity, and scalability, energy harvesting systems are incorporated into IoT systems to harvest energy from the environment.

-Energy harvesting is capturing energy from the ambient environment or external energy sources and then converting it to electrical energy, which is used to supply the IoT systems or stored for later usage. An energy harvesting system converts energy from an unusable form to useful electrical energy, which is then used to power the IoT devices or stored for later usage.
