To bridge the gap between human-body bioen-ergy and storage of energy, wearable triboelectric/piezoelectric nanogenerators(TENGs/PENGs), biofuel cells (BFCs), thermoelectric generators (TEGs) havebeen designed to harvest energy from body-motions, biofluids, and body heat,respectively. Researchers have explored various strategies using bioenergy har-vesters to charge wearable supercapacitors and batteries to relieve or even fullyeliminate the recharging process from external power stations, thus, makingwearable electronics more sustainable, autonomous, and user friendly. In thisarticle, we review the advances in the design of sustainable energy storagedevices charged by human-body energy harvesters. The progress in multifunc-tional wearable energy storage devices that cater to the easy integration withhuman-body energy harvesters will be summarized. Then, the focus is laid onthe integrating strategies (single-cell strategy and separated-cell strategy), devicedesign, materials selection, and characteristics of different self-charging human-body energy harvesting-storage systems. Finally, the challenges that impedethe wide application of human-body energy harvesters charged supercapaci-tors/batteries and prospects will be discussed both from materials and structuraldesign aspects.展开更多
