Heat energy is one of the most wasted forms of energy sources around, and for many years researchers have been trying to solve this problem. While the technology to convert heat energy into useful energy is there (thermoelectric energy), it is highly inefficient at the moment; with only a fraction of the heat energy being converted into something useful. Well it looks like the folks over at Panasonic have come up with a solution. Using thermoelectric tubes, they have managed to create a simple, compact and efficient system to capture wasted heat from hot springs and factories.
Ubergizmo, Panasonic thermoelectric tubes efficiently turn waste heat into electricity
