Tech/Engineering
Energy / Power Generation
Auf dem Piezo-Effekt basierender, batterieloser, autark arbeitender Funksensor. Die Energieversorgung leistet ein Piezo-Kristall, wie er in Feuerzeugen oder Gasanzündern zu finden ist. Die freiwerdende Energie erzeugt ein Funksignal, **das mit minimaler Sendeenergie Verbraucher schalten kann**. Ein erstes Anwendungsgebiet ist die Gebäudetechnik.
I'm having problems with the phrase between ** here. They are discussing the use of the piezo effect e.g. to power mobile devices.

activate the devices
I've done a lot of work on SAP's Utilities solution and have seen this before. The Verbraucher in this case is the device itself.

Someone else hasn\'t read my answer - quite obviously, the \"consumers are defined as \"appliances consuming energy\", or \"devices\".

Maybe I'm being over-simplistic, but I think this simple solution would work here. I assume it's like the system used with night storage heaters on Economy 7 type systems where the power company sends a radio signal to switch to low cost power when they have a sudden excess of power
