The dawn of the third millennium pave way to the emergence of modern technology. The
throughout the world rose exponentially. According to T. Wang of Statista (2019), the electricity
consumption had risen for a total of 7301.2 terawatt hours for the last two decades. In the
Philippines, electricity consumption increased by 4% (Business World, 2017). And based on the
World Bank (2019), the world consumed an estimated amount of 1.92 kilograms of oil per capita
in the production of electricity. With all the breakthroughs through the technological revolution,
the electricity production could not cope up with the electricity supply demand causing different
innovations, electricity crisis is still experienced in the different parts of the world.
The energy crisis is the concern that the world’s demands on the limited natural resources that
are used to power industrial society are diminishing as the demand rises. These natural resources
are in limited supply. While they do occur naturally, it can take hundreds of thousands of years
An estimated average of 57.4 firms in the world experienced power shortages in 2018, based on
Data World Bank (2019). Last June 2019, a major power outage was experienced in six different
countries in the South America. Uruguay, Paraguay, and Argentina all lost their electricity
supply for almost a day. Power shortage was also experienced at some parts of Brazil and Chile.
Based on CNN (2019), the power outage was the first generalized blackout in the history of
outage was also experienced in Puerto Rico on 2018. Vox News (2018) estimated that around 1.5
million consumers were affected by the power outage. CNN (2018) said that 6.5 billion hours
without electricity was endured by the consumers which makes it the second-longest black out in
the world. It took 330 days to restore power on some parts of Puerto Rico. In February of 2019,
South Africa experienced electric shortage and needed to cut 3 million consumers equivalent to
4000 megawatts to avoid the national grid from collapsing. The electric shortage was a direct
consequence of the shortage of coal used in the production of electricity. Because of this, the
country was forced to use the expensive diesel-powered gas turbines more often (The Economist,
2019).
The power outages reflected the negative effects of the reliance to non-renewable resources,
commonly fossil fuels, in generating commercial electricity. Once the supply of non-renewable
resources is inadequate, electric shortage will immediately occur. Also, using non-renewable
resources in generating electricity directly affects the environment and the societies near the
power plant. According to Greentumble (2017), 7 million people pass away annually because of
pollution and 19 thousand people die from fossil fuels every day. This is because of the direct
impact of the usage of fossil fuels to the wellbeing of humans. Not only do the usage of fossil
fuels in generating electricity harms humans, it also endangers different species throughout the
world because of the carbon dioxide emitted by the power plants which directly cause global
warming. An estimate made by the World Wildlife Fund (2015) said that around 700 different
However, carbon dioxide emissions continue to grow an average of 1.8% from 2018 – 2017
(WRI, 2019). And in 2019, due to global warming, the number of hot days increased causing for
the demand of electricity to rise causing carbon emissions to hit a record high 2.7% increase
from 2018 which was the largest increase since 2011 (The Economist, 2019). This and many
There are already countries using renewable resources as their primary source of electricity.
Examples of these are Iceland, Costa Rica, United Kingdom, and Germany (Click Energy, 2017).
Iceland is dubbed the cleanest electricity country in the world because almost 100% of their
electricity is generated from renewable resources. Renewable resources also run the whole
country of Costa Rica, with a population of more than 4.5 million people, for almost two years.
In the United Kingdom, grid-connected wind farms are being used to power houses more than
the coal power plants. And in 2015, 78% of Germany’s electric supply demand was meet by

utilizing the thermoelectric effect. Thermoelectric effect is the manifestation of Peltier, Seebeck,
and Thomson effect in a single system (ElectroBoom, 2019). Seebeck effect is the generation of
voltage in the junction of two conductors with different temperature gradients (Science Struck,
2017). Peltier effect is present when an electric current is applied to a junction of two different
conductors which cause the emission or absorption of heat throughout the system (Science
Direct, 2002). Thermoelectric generators are currently in use in some power plants and
automobile engines around the world. It runs by collecting heat emitted by the engines and
Local Literature
The Philippine's economy has greatly changed from agriculture to industrial, in terms of
energy usage. Fossil fuels (oil and gas) are the main source of its primary energy demands.
According to the 2011 primary energy consumption of the Philippines. 31 percent of the
consumption was met by oil, 20 percent by coal, 22 percent geothermal, 12 percent by biomass,
6 percent hydro and 1 percent other renewable energy like wind, solar and biofuel. Philippines

Philippines, last year, coal-fired power plants provided the largest generation share in the
country, with a whopping 51,932gwh from 23,300gwh power generated in 2010, this is stated by
the Power Statistics report of Department of Energy in 2018, according to the statistics, coal use
in the country continues to rise, followed by using oil, natural gas and renewable energy.
In 2016, CO2 emissions per capita of the Philippines was 1.23 metric tons, then increased
from 1.06 metric tons in 1997 to 1.23 metric tons, gradually increasing at an average of 1.95
percent. Carbon dioxide emissions are those caused by the burning of fossil fuels and the
manufacture of cements. This include carbon dioxide production during consumption of solid,
liquid, gas fuels and gas flaring. This is according to Knoema Corp. (2016).
The Philippines ranked third among the four countries in the world that is vulnerable to
climate change. In March last year, President Duterte signed landmark Paris Agreement on
Climate change that calls for the reduction of carbon emissions, which was linked in the
occurrence of natural disasters and extreme weather condition. In 2015, the Philippine
government submitted to the United Nations the country’s commitments to reduce its carbon
The Philippines generation sources some 74 percent of its energy needs fossil fuels,
particularly on coal and natural gas. The country utilizes various Renewable energy sources to
generate power aside from fossil fuels. Geothermal and hydro with solar and wind are beginning
to have significant effect, geothermal energy is the most developed renewable and third most
common source of electricity in the country. It produced 10,300+ gwh of power or 13 percent of
the total mix. In 2008, the government enacted the Renewable Energy Law which means aims to
accelerate the exploration and of RE sources. This was reported by the Philippine Analyst

Among all the discovered ways to recover energy, TEG is characterized to convert
energy from sources with temperature as low as 200® - 300® C. In spite the positive
qualities of TEGs, the market of TEGs is still not developed. Some researches are
made to analyze the several life cycles by installing a TEG unit to a vehicle because the

A study aimed to develop and design a multiple-fueled biomass stove with a blower fan
that operates on a renewable energy source provided by the Stirling Engine. The stove was found
functional and efficient, with only minimal differences between the voltage and current outputs
when supplied by AC outlet, compared when supplied by the Stirling Engine. AC outlet as the
supply results in higher speed rotation of the blower fan compared to using Stirling Engine.
There results revealed that it has a minimal difference between the current and voltage outputs
can have a significant effect on speed and rotation of the said blower fan, affecting the

Geothermal energy in the Philippines are one of the largest contributor in production of
electricity in our country, also as a resource of Renewable energy. The Government is moving
towards a policy environment that will facilitate the transition of the country’s energy sector to a
sustainable system by developing RE as a viable and competitive fuel option. Changing from
fossil fuel to renewable energy is the way for this transition to be successful. Stated from the

One possible application is to integrate thermoelectric devices with photovoltaic modules that
suffers from overheating. The thermoelectric device will help in lowering the temperature of the
photovoltaic modules which will optimize the performance through an increase produced output.
It is also possible that the energy production will increase if the thermoelectric device acted as
the generator. Simulation using Matlab software was used to observe if the PV-TE system is
efficient, and if using TE technology as coolant and generator will improve the performance of
the PV module. In the actual experiment, it resulted that there is an improve in the output of the

released and ejected into the atmosphere making us vulnerable and prone to climate change due
to this issue, like what Flores, H. (2018) and to Knoema Corp. (2016) reported on their article.
Because of this crisis happening in our country, President Duterte signed landmark Paris

Due to high demand of electricity, ways to provide the consumers are being made
continuously. One way is to harvest waste heat energy and convert it to electricity through
thermoelectric generators using mainly, the Seebeck Effect. This option has shown potential to
provide electricity due to the continuous heating of the Earth and the demand for electricity is not
decreasing. But due to materials required to make a TEG unit, the development of the TEG
market is still on hold even though the future of the market is clear and the result will benefit the
whole community and history. The price to build a TEG is one of the big factors why researchers
cannot claim that TEGs are really efficient for the consumer. Despite the price needed, the
overall effect and product of TEGs on today’s technology allows the consumers to lessen the
worry of energy production that consumers demand. Researches are still being made to reduce
the cost needed to build a high performance TEG for it affects the overall efficiency of TEGs.
The use of TEGs will surely benefit the environment, and if the price can be lessened anytime
soon, surely, the TEG market will be developed because of TEG’s worth for money. Among all
the ways to recover heat energy, TEG shows the most convenient way because of the minimum
