Thermoelectric Refrigeration
Thermoelectric refrigeration is operated by a direct current passing through a circuit formed by two dissimilar conductors or semiconductors that produce a temperature difference at the junction of two conductors. This is called Peltier effect and thermoelectric refrigerator uses the Peltier module sandwiched by two heat exchangers.

Thermoelectric Systems for Sustainable Refrigeration
Advanced thermoelectric systems also give higher efficiencies/COPs. Power generation can be enhanced by integrating PV cell with TEG. For intermittent heat source, specifically solar energy, TEG/TEC can be integrated with phase change material for more reliability. These systems can generate cooling of 5 mW to 500 W.
