| Title | Advancing Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting for Singapore’s Land Transport Infrastructure |
| Summary | Previous student has focused on evaluating the feasibility of piezoelectric energy harvesters as a sustainable power source. Key achievements included a literature review on energy harvesting principles, the development of a small-scale prototype, and a preliminary cost analysis to assess economic viability. Building on these foundations, the next phase of this project will focus on constructing a full-scale model, integrating an energy storage system to enhance practicality, and conducting real-world trials at MRT stations. Additionally, the feasibility of deploying this technology on roads will be explored to assess its potential for wider application in Singapore’s transport network. This project aims to provide deeper insights into the implementation of piezoelectric energy harvesting, contributing to a more sustainable and energy-efficient urban infrastructure. Students with a background in power engineering and an interest in renewable energy technologies are encouraged to apply |
