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 ...

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Bong-su] A power generator smaller than a fingernail that converts heat generated by electronic devices back into electricity has been developed. It can operate ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Drs. SuDong Park, Byungki Ryu, and Jaywan Chung of the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI) developed a new thermoelectric efficiency formalism and a high-efficiency multistage ...

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” ...
