本論文は、振動エネルギーハーベスター（VEH）技術の包括的なレビューを提供し、その発電ポテンシャル、技術開発、SDGs 7、11、13への貢献可能性を評価する。実験的平均発電量は0.24 mWで、過去15年間で3桁の増加が見られ、センサーや無線センサーネットワークへの応用が最も有望である。ただし、発電量が低いためSDG 13への貢献は限定的と結論づける。
English
This paper provides a comprehensive review of vibrational energy harvester (VEH) technology, assessing its power generation potential, technological development, and societal implications for SDGs 7, 11, and 13. Average power generation in experiments is 0.24 mW, with a 1000-fold increase over 15 years. Sensors and wireless sensor networks are the most promising applications, while contributions to climate action (SDG 13) are limited due to low power output.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本では、振動エネルギーは交通機関や工場などでの微小発電として注目される可能性があるが、本レビューは主に学術的知見に基づき、日本のGX政策との直接的な連関は薄い。ただし、オフグリッド地域でのセンサー電源としての応用は、日本の防災・監視分野に示唆を与える。
In the global GX context
This review contributes to the global sustainable energy transition by highlighting a niche but potentially valuable off-grid energy source. While not directly addressing mainstream GX topics like carbon pricing or disclosure, it aligns with SDG 7 (affordable and clean energy) and offers insights for low-power sensor networks and LED lighting in remote locations.
👥 読者別の含意

🏛政策担当者:Policymakers focused on energy access and SDGs might consider supporting R&D for small-scale energy harvesting technologies.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Energy systems must meet an increasing demand while simultaneously moving away from high‑carbon sources, with renewable energy sources (RES) offering a valuable alternative. While mainstream RES supply almost a third of the world's electricity, less attention has been paid to small-scale low-carbon energy sources and their role in providing off-grid energy access and sustainable energy transition. Vibration energy is one such source. However, a critical gap exists in the review literature regarding the real-world potential of vibrational energy harvester (VEH) technology. This paper addresses that gap by providing a comprehensive review of VEH research to assess its power generation potential, technological development, and societal implications such as potential contributions to sustainable development goals (SDGs) 7, 11, and 13. We find that there is a heavy focus on electromagnetic and piezoelectric harvesters. Average power generation in experiments is 0.24 mW, with 1 W generated in one tenth of experiments, and an increase in power generation of three orders of magnitude over the past 15 years. Sensors and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) provide the most promising use of VEH-generated power and potentially also low-level LED lighting. Through these applications, vibration energy might have the potential to contribute to SDGs 7 and 11 by providing monitoring or lighting in off-grid locations, although we note that this is highly context-dependent. We suggest that contributions to SDG 13 are limited primarily due to the low power generation potential of VEH devices. We conclude our review with recommendations for further studies.
