 | Abstract | The complexity of battery-powered autonomous de-vices such as Internet of Things (IoT) nodes or Unmanned Aerial
 Vehicles (UAV) and the necessity to ensure an acceptable quality
 of service, reliability, and security, have significantly increased
 their energy demand. In this paper, we discuss using a diffusion
 approximation process to approximate the dynamic changes in
 the energy content of a battery. We consider the case when
 energy harvesting sources are constantly charging the battery.
 The model assumes a probabilistic consumption and delivery of
 energy, giving the time-dependent distributions of the energy at
 the battery, of the time remaining until it becomes empty, the
 time required to charge the battery to its total capacity, or the
 time it is operational between two moments of complete depletion.
 When possible, we compare the diffusion approximation results
 with corresponding Markovian models.
