Title: On the Performance of Solar Thermoelectric Generators
with a High Difference in Seebeck Co-efficient Materials
for Renewable and Sustainable Energy
Authors: J. Saarvesh,

Abstract: The main objective of
this paper is to improve the Solar thermoelectric
generators by using different materials like
chalcogenides and selenium-platinum thermocouples, In
this concept solar thermoelectric generators are fixed
on the roof a car where the voltage generated from the
solar thermoelectric generators which is used for
charging the battery, and for powering small electrical
appliances and ventilation system even when the car is
not moving. As the STEG replaces the work done by the
dynamo the fuel consumed for powering electrical
applicants is prevented, so in turn the fuel consumption
for a car decreases which increases the fuel efficiency
and decreases the carbon emission in the atmosphere..
