Clean Energy Through Ceramics

Recent advances in low-power electronics have generated tremendous interest and provided new opportunities for the use of piezoelectric materials to power electronic devices without the need for batteries. Ceramic fiber spinning technology has been refined to produce inexpensive piezoelectric fibre composites, which have generated sufficient power to run wireless sensor networks and electronic devices from waste mechanical energy.
