A vibration-driven energy harvester includes: a fixed electrode; a movable electrode that is disposed so as to face opposite the fixed electrode and is allowed to move relative to the fixed electrode; and an ionic liquid disposed between the fixed electrode and the movable electrode which face opposite each other, wherein: power is generated as an external vibration moves the movable electrode, causing a change in at least one of an area of an electrical double layer formed on two sides of an interface of the fixed electrode and the ionic liquid and an area of an electrical double layer formed on two sides of an interface of the movable electrode and the ionic liquid.
