Mechanical energy in a rolling tire is strong and stable, but it is always wasted and there is no effective means for harvesting. Herein, we demonstrate an array of compressible hexagonal-structured triboelectric nanogenerators (CH-TENGs) for harvesting the mechanical energy from a rolling tire. The CH-TENG units can be stacked in parallel connections and fixed in a rubber tire. The energy harvesting performances are systematically investigated and the maximum instantaneous power is 1.9mW with the CH-TENG in 8 units, a weight load of 10 N and a speed of 2.51 m/s. The CH-TENGs have stable and durable characteristics for a 30-day continuous work and can drive a wireless tire pressure sensor once every 14 min when the moving speed is 2.51 m/s and weight load is 10 N. On the basis of the measured output power of the CH-TENG, it is expected to produce at least 1.2 W for a standard tire with the CH-TENG in 500 units and the running speed of 100 km/h. This work not only provides a promising solution to harvest the wasted mechanical energy from rolling tires, but also demonstrates the potential applications of the CH-TENG in sustainable automotive electronics.
