Abstract

This study examines the potential of harnessing vehicle traffic in Leicestershire to power street
lighting using the direct piezoelectric effect. Our model generated approximately 4.8 × 102 J of
energy, which falls significantly short of the estimated energy requirement of 3.3 × 1013 J to meet
the full demands of street lighting.
