We probe the potential for intelligent intervention to enhance the power output of energy harvesters. We investigate general principles and a case study: a bi-resonant piezo electric harvester. We consider intelligent interventions via pre-programmed reversible energy-conserving operations. We find that in important parameter regimes these can outperform diode-based intervention, which in contrast has a fundamental minimum power dissipation bound.
