What are the most plausible ways to power cybernetic implants?

While browsing Isaac Arthur I came across their video about cyborg armies, and it brought up something about cyborgs that I never fully considered until now. How do cyborgs keep their implants powered up? Isaac suggested that people use atomic batteries to power them, but I'm not sure people would be comfortable having atomic energy inside their body. That leaves the following alternatives:

  • a device that collects solar energy to power the implants
  • a port/socket that lets them plug in and recharge from another power source.
  • relying on natural or artificial foods as biofuel to gain energy.

Are there any other possibilities?

Comments

The overlap between people willing to get their ribcage replaced with an armored safe for the motherland and people skeevy about getting atomic generators is not likely to be that big.
