This paper deals with the Piezo-electric MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical-System) sensor model which acts as an energy harvester based on vibrations. Vibration energy harvesting has been employed for converting ample amount of kinetic energy into electric energy by several different transduction methods. Among many harvesting transducers, the piezoelectric energy harvester (PEH) is compatible with MEMS technology and has high electromechanical coupling effects and requires no external voltage source and has been accordingly in most of the recent research. It provides a green and practically infinite alternative power source to conventional energy sources, this harvester will significantly explore the applications of wireless sensor networks, biomedical implants etc., which may generate mW or μW level of power. The simplicity associated with piezoelectric micro-sensors make them very attractive for MEMS applications in which ambient vibrations are harvested and converted into electric energy. These micro shaped-generators can become an alternative to the battery-based solutions in the future.
