Usage of Piezoelectric Material and Generating Electricity

Abstract

Today, another alternative usage area of the piezoelectric materials having a wide usage area from the automotive sector to the military industry is the production of electricity energy. In this study; information has been given regarding the piezoelectric impact and the usage areas of the materials showing this impact.

The number of the studies conducted in the area of renewable energy production systems increase day by day as a result of the consumption of the traditional energy resources in time due to the increase in the demand for energy. For this reason; piezoelectric materials have the property of being an alternative renewable energy production material because they could transform the wind and wave energy into electricity energy in which permanent pressure changes could be provided due to the operational principles of the piezoelectric materials.

In this study; the studies in the literature regarding the production of electricity energy in which piezoelectric materials have been used in majority have been explained.
