EH-IoT - Energy Harvesting Enabled Smart Power Supply for Condition Monitoring

EH-IoT is an EIT Manufacturing activity that proves self-powered IoT sensing for industry and energy. Led by TEGnology, the project pairs a curved thermoelectric generator with micro-storage and ultra-low-power radios so retrofit sensors can operate without batteries or mains wiring. Prototypes are under test at three sites: a solar-panel field in Portugal, a heat-exchanger line in Sweden and a domestic solar-heating loop in Israel, validating performance across different conditions.

Peer Stritzinger GmbH supplies the GRiSP Nano reference node and the embedded firmware that manage wireless communication and power-aware control. Our contribution ensures the harvested-energy sensors report reliably to cloud dashboards and gives equipment makers a clear blueprint for scaling battery-free monitoring across their assets.

Activity Partners

Seven partners work together in EH-IoT. TEGnology leads and supplies the curved thermoelectric generator, while Alfa Laval, Azitek and a Portuguese energy utility host the pilot sites. The University of Trento and ADSR add power-electronics and data-analytics expertise, and Peer Stritzinger GmbH contributes GRiSP Nano firmware plus cloud integration.

This mix of technology providers and real-world pilots lets the activity partners test battery-free sensing across several industrial settings.

The ADSR logo will be added as soon as it is available.
