With the development of wearable electronics and wireless sensors, WD‐TENG, which can convert wind energy to electrical energy, are researched not only to enhance output performance but also to improve compatibility with other electrical devices. It has become a new trend in the further development of self‐powered devices that harvest energy from surrounding environment.

The theoretical models and working mechanisms of current WD‐TENGs have been described in this chapter. The output performances of the TENGs can be improved by optimizing advanced structures and materials. Among the several structures, vibrating plate‐based structure, elasto‐aerodynamics‐based structure, and rotary‐driven mechanical structure are three popular structures. Some advanced materials, such as cellulose, superhydrophobic surfaces, and nanowires, have been used. Lastly, soma smart self‐powered devices based on WD‐TENGs are introduced to present wide application prospects.
