        abstract = {The increasing demand for energy and depletion of conventional resources like coal and petroleum has led to the development of alternative energy sources. One such innovative technology is the piezoelectric road, which generates electricity from the mechanical stress produced by moving vehicles.
This technology is based on the concept of Piezoelectric Effect, where certain materials produce electric charge when subjected to mechanical pressure. In modern urban areas with heavy traffic, a large amount of mechanical energy is wasted. Piezoelectric roads aim to convert this wasted energy into useful electrical energy.
The increasing demand for sustainable and renewable energy sources has led to the development of innovative technologies such as piezoelectric roads. This paper presents a detailed study on the generation of electrical energy from road traffic using the Piezoelectric Effect. Piezoelectric materials have the unique ability to generate electrical charge when subjected to m},
