In recent years, energy harvesting using thermoelectric modules (TEMs), which generate electromotive force from the temperature difference between the two sides due to the Seebeck effect, has attracted much attention. In order to improve the electromotive force of TEMs, it is necessary to create a large temperature difference between the two sides of the module. It has been reported that the radiation cooling (RC) phenomenon, which is passive cooling, improves power generation efficiency. In this study, we combined RC with a heat sink using water with high specific heat to realize environmental power generation.
