AbstractAbstract
[en] This research paper targets the usage piezoelectric effect to harvest ambient energy. There are many techniques to harvest energy. Low cost and clean energy can be produced by deforming piezoelectric material through the vibrations produced by mechanical energy obtained from the environment. Wind is a great source of vibrations needed to induce piezoelectricity. Along with many other energy harvesting techniques being used, this paper presents a new mechanism to utilize wind energy to produce electricity without huge turbines and conventional wind mills. An overall circuit for obtaining processing and storing this electric charge is also offered. (author)
