The foreseeable decline of fossil-fuel resources is promoting growing interest in renewable energy technologies such as solar energy converters and heat recovery techniques. The manufacturing industry, automobiles, and thermal power plants lose a lot of energy to heat, which could be recovered and converted to electricity by a new generation of improved thermoelectric (TE) devices. TE converters directly convert this heat into electricity. The advantage of thermoelectric modules compared with mechanical or chemical energy conversion technologies such as Stirling engines, Rankine cycles, and solid oxide fuel cells (SOFC)1 is that they do not involve moving parts and operate unfueled. Therefore, low-maintenance TE modules rank among the most promising energy conversion technologies.
