An all‐solution‐processed flexible thin film piezoelectric nanogenerator is demonstrated using reactive zinc hydroxo‐condensation and a screen‐printing method. The highly elastic thin film allows the piezoelectric energy to be generated through the mechanical rolling and muscle stretching of the piezoelectric unit. This flexible all solution‐processed nanogenerator is promising for use in future energy harvesters such as wearable human patches and mobile electronics.
