The groundbreaking European research project "LoLiPoP- IoT" (Long Life Power Platforms for the Internet of Things) is set to host its final dissemination event at EnerHarv 2026 on May 27, 2026, starting at 10.00 am. This in person workshop is a compelling must-attend for academics and industry professionals who are keen on advancing and/or leveraging low-power remote sensing and tracking technologies. The event promises to offer valuable insights into the project's research network, objectives, and the project results after three years of research.
The LoLiPoP-IoT project aims at developing multi-source energy harvesting and micro-power management solutions for wireless IoT devices by pioneering new technologies and their applications across ten diverse use cases. This dissemination workshop will introduce these use cases, their underlying functionalities and what has been achieved. This will be demonstrated via presentations, posters, videos and demonstrators on-site at the EnerHarv conference. The use cases span three primary application domains: Industry 4.0, Smart Mobility and Energy-Efficient Buildings, leveraging three key functionalities: Asset Tracking, Condition Monitoring, and Building Energy Efficiency/Comfort. The focused innovations aim to convert energy from light, vibrations, magnetic fields, and heat while minimizing power consumption in wireless IoT edge devices. This approach enables the retrofitting of long-battery-life sensors on, in, or near equipment and infrastructure.
