Abstract
These recent years, low thermal energy for generating power has captured awareness. Most of the latest commercialized thermal power generation technologies indirectly transform thermal energy into electricity that is, mechanical activity before electricity is generated. However, innovation utilizing a thermoelectric generator (TEG) can straightforwardly convert thermal energy into electricity via Seebek effect. TEG is one of the possible solutions for the management of non-renewable energy sources, which are predicted to be drained in the coming years. The development of this project is based on thermoelectric generator with biconvex lens as solar concentrator and damped soil for heat dissipation system. This overall system creates an alternative on producing large amount of power other than solar panels.
