Abstract Among all forms of energy, electricity is the most widely used. However, there is a significant shortage of electricity in today’s world, which needs to be addressed. As we know, the number of vehicles on the road is increasing rapidly worldwide. The movement of these vehicles can be utilized to generate a considerable amount of electricity. Harnessing the waste energy produced by moving vehicles is both relevant and important, especially in high-traffic areas. When roads are engineered with piezoelectric technology, the pressure exerted by moving vehicles is captured by sensors embedded in the road. This pressure is then converted into electrical energy by piezoelectric transducers, which can be stored and used as a power source.
This paper focuses on the generation of alternative energy using piezoelectric materials. It explores how these materials can harvest energy from vibrations caused by moving vehicles for the purpose of energy generation and storage. The study also examines public perception and the adaptability of piezoelectric technology. Furthermore, the feasibility of implementing piezoelectric systems in real-world environments is analyzed by comparing the overall cost of electricity generation with that of solar energy.
