Abstract

Energy consumption has been rising globally in recent years, which is a major source of concern owing to its impact on climate change. Climate change has resulted in stronger hurricanes, more droughts and heat waves, rising sea levels, and predictions that the arctic will be ice-free by mid-century, according to NASA. The heating and cooling of buildings is one of the most noticeable energy consumption methods that have a detrimental impact on the climate. As a result, reducing the amount of energy used in buildings for heating and cooling has become a popular research topic. While energy efficiency has improved dramatically in recent years, the usage of hazardous refrigerants like R-410a has already had a significant negative impact on the environment. Solar, wind, and thermal power plants are the most common sources of electricity nowadays. However, because more space can be utilised as a result of this, fuel costs are rising every day, and power consumption in commercial sectors is at an all-time high. As a result, use a Thermo electric power generator to avoid these issues. Peltier coolers and Thermo electric generators are examples. The thermo electric generator converts waste heat into electrical energy.
