Abstract The future era utilizes IoT in order to provide long-lasting energy and ensure its benefits and optimal usage in smart cities. But IoT device usage may not ensure sustainability and may rely on non-ambient sources of energy, most commonly the batteries, which can be quickly deployed but require periodic battery replacement. Energy harvesting provides solutions by utilizing ambient energy, which is ubiquitous and shall enable green communications. Energy harvesting is the collection of ambient energy in small amounts to power wireless devices. This proves promising where usage of batteries is impractical, say body sensor networks, in particular. It converts available energy to electrical energy which can be used later. It shall provide self-sustaining energy from the environment’s ambient sources. This paper presents a significant focus on energy and energy harvesting methods that rely on solar, thermal, kinetic, and Radio Frequency. Also, Thermal electricity is one of the most crucial aspects in the field of bioelectricity. It has been found through the literature surveys that thermoelectric is found to be the most sustainable form of electricity. The implications and reasons for harvesting energy are discussed. This paper derives the conclusion that energy harvesting is one of the crucial aspects which needs to be widely adopted in order to save the environment and achieve sustainability. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.
