Abstract


Solar energy is clean and renewable, making it a viable option for those seeking to reduce their carbon footprint. These electrons are then converted into electricity, which can be used to power homes, offices, and factories.  In this study, heat generated by solar panels will generate electricity by using 10 thermoelectric generators (TEG) type SP1848 27145 arranged in parallel series and attached at the bottom of the panels.  A study carried out by the Sun Energy Foundation found that the average power generated by solar panels without TEG is 9.4 W, with an average efficiency of 12.12%, while solar panels with TEG produce 9.22 W, with a potential efficiency of 11.98%. An average TEG produces 23.41 mW of power with a 0.00878% efficiency.   As a result of the relatively small temperature difference between the hot and cold sides of the TEG, the efficiency produced is very small. The temperature difference between the hot and cold sides of the TEG averages 4.35°c. A heatsink is the only heat dissipator on the cold side of the TEG, and airflow is the only natural coolant, resulting in insufficient heat dissipation by the heatsink. The temperature that occurs on the hot side of the TEG depends solely on solar radiation for the heat to be generated, so the temperature on the hot side of the TEG is not too high.
