BPN654: Electret-Based Voltage Sensing and Energy Harvesting from Energized Conductors

Abstract: 

The goal of this project is to design and fabricate electret-based voltage sensors and energy harvesters for Smart Grid and Demand Response applications. The functions of the proposed devices are to sense the voltage variation and harvest energy from energized conductors such as appliance cords and high-voltage power transmission lines and equipment.
