Initial development of an electrical power generator by using thermoelectric generator, focal lens and underground heat dissipation system

Electrical energy is important in various developments to ensure global stability. However, most electrical energy sources are non-renewable and these sources are expected to be depleted in the near future. In order to solve this problem, research on renewable energy sources are intensified and ther...

In order to solve this problem, research on renewable energy sources are intensified and thermoelectric generator (TEG) is one of the potential solutions.

However, the heat dissipation system showed a promising development due to its non-dependency on external energy to expel heat from the cold side.
