Abstract

The increasing demand for electrical energy and the environmental impact of conventional power generation methods have created a need for sustainable and pollution-free energy sources. Piezoelectric energy harvesting is an emerging technology that converts mechanical pressure and vibrations into electrical energy using piezoelectric materials. This paper presents a system for pollution-free power generation using piezoelectric discs. The proposed system captures mechanical energy generated by human footsteps and converts it into usable electrical energy through piezoelectric transducers. The generated electrical energy is rectified, stored, and utilized for low-power applications such as LED lighting, sensors, and portable electronic devices. The system is eco-friendly, renewable, cost-effective, and suitable for installation in high-traffic areas such as railway stations, shopping malls, public walkways, and educational institutions. Experimental observations demonstrate the feasibility of generating electrical energy from otherwise wasted mechanical energy, contributing to sustainable energy development.
