An Alternative Energy Source – Using Piezoelectric Technology

Abstract

Energy consumption has always increased at an exponential rate, and there has always been an increasing demand for energy in some form or another. As a result, there is a need to look for energy availability from alternative sources. The use of waste energy from human mobility is significant and important in densely populated countries like India, where train stations, temples, and other public spaces are constantly congested. The electrical energy created by the pressure is captured by floor sensors and transformed to an electrical charge by piezo transducers, then stored and used as a power source when the flooring is constructed using piezoelectric technology. This study is on the generation of alternative energy sources. This paper discusses the use of piezoelectric materials to generate alternative energy sources. The use of piezoelectric materials to harvest energy from people walking vibration for creating and accumulating energy is described in this study. This research also looks into how people think about piezoelectricity and how adaptable it is. By comparing the whole cost of generating power with solar energy, the adaptability of piezoelectric technology in a real-time setting has been investigated. The piezoelectric energy harvesting model, which is cost-effective and simple to apply, is also suggested in this study.
