Resumen

La recolección de energía es un proceso que permite obtener electricidad utilizable a partir de la captura y conversión de diversas formas de energía ambiental, que pueden incluir desde la radiación solar hasta las vibraciones generadas por el tráfico vehicular. México, gracias a su ubicación geográfica, posee un alto potencial para la generación de energía, ya que cuenta con una amplia variedad de recursos naturales como la energía solar, eólica, hidráulica y geotérmica, entre otras. Considerando la necesidad global de reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero y minimizar el impacto ambiental, resulta fundamental explorar nuevas oportunidades para optimizar la generación de energía mediante distintas técnicas de recolección.

Palabras clave: Recolección de energía, energías renovables, energías limpias.

Abstract

Energy harvesting is a process that enables the generation of usable electricity by capturing and converting various forms of ambient energy, ranging from solar radiation to vibrations produced by vehicular traffic. Due to its geographical location, Mexico has great potential for energy generation, as it possesses a wide variety of natural resources, including solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal energy, among others. Given the global need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and minimize environmental impact, it is essential to explore new opportunities to optimize energy generation through different harvesting techniques.

Keywords: Energy harvesting, renewable energy, clean energy.
