The walking activity can benefit both people and society in term of health and environment conservation through reducing usage of vehicle transpiration. Hence, the pedestrian walkway can serve more than providing a safe path and are potential to be an energy efficient space. This study aims to review renewable energies exist in pedestrian walkway spaces. Therefore, two sources of walking energy and solar energy is selected and harvesting technologies are investigated. Among the different mechanism piezoelectric transduction is selected and fundamentals and circuitry are discussed. The results show that in order to harvest optimum energy, arrangement of harvesters is an important factor. Moreover, system sizing is important in the design of hybrid renewable energy system. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. date: 2021 publisher: Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85106202561&doi=10.1007%2f978-981-33-6560-5_33&partnerID=40&md5=61342710b997c205358ea92772251113 id_number: 10.1007/978-981-33-6560-5₃₃ full_text_status: none publication: Lecture Notes in Civil Engineering volume: 139 LN pagerange: 335-366 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9789813365599 issn: 23662557 citation: Maghsoudi Nia, E. and Wan Abdullah Zawawi, N.A. and Mahinder Singh, B.S.
