THERMO -ELECTRIC GENERATOR

By:

 ABSTRACT
✕ One of the major problem faced by developing
countries is power generation by fossil fuels which
causes major problems to the environment
✕ To overcome this green power should be generated
like solar , tidal & wind energies etc
✕ Thermoelectric generator is one of the green power
source.
✕ In TEG the electricity is produced by the
temperature difference in the mediums.
HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE:

✕ In 1821, Thomas Johann
Seebeck discovered that a
thermal gradient formed
between two dissimilar
conductors can produce
electricity. The flow of charge
carriers between the hot and
cold regions in turn creates a
voltage difference.

CONCLUSION:-

✕ Depending on hydro & wind powers is not

sufficient and using fossil fuel is no ethical.
✕ Funding is required to develop TEG
commercially.
✕ Lets make the TEG in reality for all those who
needed
