Cellulose II aerogels, with the features of high flexibility, porosity, and surface area, are integrated with triboelectric nanogenerators to yield green, sustainable energy harvesting, and sensing devices. By blending other natural polysaccharides to introduce electron‐donating and electron‐withdrawing groups, the performance of the cellulose II aerogel‐based triboelectric nanogenerators can be significantly improved and used for mechanical energy harvesting and motion monitoring.
