What is it about?
Wearable energy system consist of energy generator and storage. The energy generator is button type ferroelectric solar cell and the energy storage is thread type capacitor. Once electric power is charged in thread, we can drive essential healthcare device by using the energy in a month.

Why is it important?
In the future smart society, Sustainable self-sufficient energy system is desirable. This wearable energy system is one of hopeful solution.
Perspectives
Capacitor is safety energy storage method as the mechanism is based on not chemical working, but physical working. The concept of this energy system will be used widely.
