Above all, this work not only provides an in-depth energy transfer mechanism between TENGs and energy management circuits but also establishes a TENG-based constant voltage power supply system with energy storage capabilities. This holds significant guiding implications for the subsequent development of TENG energy management.
This innovative technology is capable of harnessing wasted mechanical energy from various sources such as motion, waves, wind, and vibrations, converting it into electrical energy. TENG devices operate based on the cyclic principle of contact and separation between tribo-material pairs.
In terms of miniaturized energy harvesting systems, integrating TENG with organic SC becomes a significant approach to collect the solar energy owing to its flexibility that can be seamlessly integrated with human and the compatibility with large-scale and low-cost manufacturing techniques [124, 170].
There are many applications of TENGs in the energy sector such as self-powered devices for electrochromic systems, TENGs for biomedical microsystems with sustainable power ability, human–machine interface systems, and human mechanical energy sensors for sport applications .
