“…For the tribo-pair of TENGs to produce a higher output, their polarization must differ significantly [50,51]. Most negative friction materials are polymers, such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) or fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) since fluorine is the most electronegative element in their chemical structure [52][53][54][55][56][57]. Additionally, certain materials will be described in the following section.…”

The field of transportation plays a crucial role in the development of society. It is vital to establish a smart transportation system (STS) to increase the convenience and security of human life. The incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) into the traffic system has facilitated the emergence of innovative technologies like autonomous vehicles or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which contribute to the reduction of traffic accidents and the liberation of human driving time. However, this improvement involves the use of multiple sensor devices that need external power sources. As a result, pollution occurs, as do increases in manufacturing costs. Therefore, the quest to develop sustainable energy remains a formidable obstacle. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) have emerged as a possible solution for addressing this problem owing to their exceptional performance and simple design. This article explores the use of TENG-based self-power sensors and their potential applications in the field of transportation. Furthermore, the data collected for this study might aid readers in enhancing their comprehension of the benefits linked to the use of these technologies to promote their creative ability.

“…In 2019, an office building called the "powerhouse", commissioned by Sonja Horn's company, was inaugurated in the Norwegian city of Trondheim. The roof is covered with 3000 square meters of solar panels which are angled optimally to capture the sun's rays in northern Europe [21]. Through these, the powerhouse produces an annual average of 500,000 kWh of electricity, which is more than double the amount it consumes [22].…”

The main problem confronting the world is human-caused climate change, which is intrinsically linked to the need for energy both now and in the future. Renewable (green) energy has been proposed as a future solution, and many renewable energy technologies have been developed for different purposes. However, progress toward net zero carbon emissions by 2050 and the role of renewable energy in 2050 are not well known. This paper reviews different renewable energy technologies developed by different researchers and their potential and challenges to date, and it derives lessons for world and especially African policymakers. According to recent research results, the mean global capabilities for solar, wind, biogas, geothermal, hydrogen, and ocean power are 325 W, 900 W, 300 W, 434 W, 150 W, and 2.75 MWh, respectively, and their capacities for generating electricity are 1.5 KWh, 1182.5 KWh, 1.7 KWh, 1.5 KWh, 1.55 KWh, and 3.6 MWh, respectively. Securing global energy leads to strong hope for meeting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), such as those for hunger, health, education, gender equality, climate change, and sustainable development. Therefore, renewable energy can be a considerable contributor to future fuels.

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) hold immense potential as sustainable energy sources, with waste materials serving as promising materials for their fabrication. Nearly 270 million tons of waste is produced yearly, most of which remains unrecycled. TENGs can utilize this wide range of waste to convert mechanical energy to electrical energy while providing a solution for the global issue of plastic waste. On the other hand, the enormous demand for wearable electronics and the Internet of Things (IoT) trigger the development of self‐reliant energy sources. Currently, TENGs are one of the preferred choices as they are easy to design and generate high output. In this regard, TENGs are promising for utilizing waste materials, particularly for self‐powered or energy‐autonomous applications. This review focuses on utilizing waste materials from diverse sources, including biowaste, household waste, medical, laboratory, pharmaceutical, textile, electronic waste (e‐waste), and automotive waste for TENG development. Different waste materials are detailed for their potential as materials for TENGs, their availability, and recycling methods. The review also highlights the applications of TENGs fabricated from waste materials. Finally, the challenges, limitations, and future perspectives of using waste materials for TENG fabrication are discussed to motivate further advances.
