[O06-P72] Generation of electrical energy using Peltier effect

*Kou Nishikawa1, *Shota Kasagi1, *Hiroto Niihara1 (1. Fukui Prefectural Wakasa High School)

Keywords:Temperature difference power generation, Peltier element


Currently, Japan faces various problems such as a low energy self-sufficiency rate and
future depletion of fossil fuels, so the Japanese government is promoting the introduction of renewable energy.
Therefore, we thought that it might be possible to solve this problem by using the Peltier
effect to generate electricity using exhaust heat emitted from the everyday things around us. This time, we conducted an experiment focusing on hot water in a bathtub. However, the Peltier device used in this research could not generate enough power, so we decided to think of ways to generate power efficiently and other possible places where it can be used.
