Researchers developed an inexpensive large-scale flexible thermoelectric generator (FlexTEG) module with high mechanical reliability for highly efficient power generation. Through a change in ...

For off-grid renewable electricity, solar seems to make sense. Just throw some PV panels on the roof and you’re all set to stick it to the man, right? But the dirty little secret of the king of clean ...

Thermoelectric generator harvests renewable energy from the cold of space As effective as solar panels are, one of their major downsides is that they only produce power during the day, so excess ...

Scientists at Tianjin Chengjian University in China have fabricated an experimental photovoltaic device that integrates three different technologies aimed at improving its performance – a phase change ...

This article appeared in Electronic Design and has been published here with permission. Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) and TE modules are attractive potential sources of harvested energy, but the ...

There are a number of thermoelectric (or thermal-electric) devices readily available for your designs. They fall into two categories. First, there are cooling devices; often used for fiber optic ...

(Left) KERI Dr. Hyekyoung Choi and (Right) Dr. Min Ju Yun are demonstrating a stretchable and flexible thermoelectric generators using metamaterials. A team of Dr. Hyekyoung Choi and Min Ju Yun of ...

Researchers from India's Vellore Institute of Technology have developed an experimental system, coupling PV with a thermoelectric generator (TEG) and a graphite sheet as a heat dissipation element.

One of the weaknesses of solar power generation is that it cannot generate electricity at night, so many people in the world cannot benefit from electricity at night. To overcome this situation, ...

Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) and TE modules are attractive potential sources of harvested energy, but the stiffness of available module materials makes them awkward and unsortable for “personal” ...
