Piezoelectric Tires for Sustainable Power Generation

Shriram Srinivasan

Abstract: Electricity is crucial for advancing technology, and with the increasing use of electronic devices, it has become essential. As transportation evolves, the automobile industry is exploring different systems to enhance safety and comfort. To address environmental concerns, efficient combustion engines or clean alternative fuels are being sought. Vehicle capabilities can be improved by embedding sensors. This report explores piezoelectric electricity harvesting as a step towards clean energy. Piezoelectric materials convert mechanical energy into electricity, making them common in automotive applications. This offers a new opportunity for sustainable energy as traditional resources deplete.
