Thermoelectrics are materials and devices that convert temperature gradients directly into electrical energy through the Seebeck effect. They also enable solid-state cooling using the Peltier effect. Thermoelectric systems are particularly attractive for waste heat recovery from industrial processes, power plants, and vehicle exhaust systems. Because they have no moving parts, thermoelectric devices are silent, reliable, and require minimal maintenance. Research focuses on developing materials with high electrical conductivity, low thermal conductivity, and enhanced thermoelectric efficiency. Nanostructured materials and advanced alloys have shown promising performance improvements. Thermoelectrics contribute to energy efficiency by utilizing otherwise wasted heat and support decentralized and sustainable power generation in modern energy systems.
