Crowdsharing Wireless Energy Services
share
We propose a novel self-sustained ecosystem for energy sharing in the IoT environment. We leverage energy harvesting, wireless power transfer, and crowdsourcing that facilitate the development of an energy crowdsharing framework to charge IoT devices. The ubiquity of IoT devices, coupled with the potential ability for sharing energy, provides new and exciting opportunities to crowdsource wireless energy, thus enabling a green alternative for powering IoT devices anytime and anywhere. We discuss the crowdsharing of energy services, open challenges, and proposed solutions.
