Unlike earlier hybrid wearable energy systems, the presented e-textile microgrid relies solely on human movements to work synergistically, harvesting biochemical and biomechanical energy using sweat-based biofuel cells and triboelectric generators, and regulating the harvested energy via supercapacitor modules for high-power output.
In a wearable microgrid system, energy management systems (EMS) are crucial for efficient energy regulation. Similar to an electric microgrid, a hierarchical control system is usually required, in which regulators regulate
Inspired by this notion, we herein propose and demonstrate the concept of a wearable e-textile microgrid system: a multi-module, textile-base system with applications powered by complementary and synergistic energy harvesters and commensurate energy storage modules.
In both applications with different modes of operation, the wearable microgrid system—with its complementary and synergistic BFC-TEG harvesting and commensurate SC pairing—was able to deliver both fast-booting and extended-harvesting to ensure the autonomous and sustainable operation of the wearable platforms.
In summary, we have demonstrated the concept of wearable bioenergy microgrid via a textile-based multi-module system for sequentially harvesting biomechanical and biochemical energy via the TEG and BFC modules.
In this regard, wearable energy systems can seek inspiration in the design and deployment of microgrids operating in“island mode ”31 –33.
The fingertip-wearable microgrid system consists of four BFCs, two AgCl-Zn batteries, a flexible printed circuit board (fPCB), four potentiometric electrochemical sensors and a hydrogel-based osmotic sweat pumping system with a laser-engraved paper microfluidic channel (Fig. 1a).
Implementing the “complementary, commensurate, compatible design principles, the microgrid e-” textile system serves as an attractive example for future integrated on-body systems that are autonomous, reliable, synergistic, sus-tainable and energy-ef ficient.
