Progress with thermoelectric harvesting

Abstract:
At the forthcoming Energy Harvesting USA event in Boston Massachusetts, 16-17 November, Prof Gang Chen of Massachusetts Institute of Technology will talk on "Power from temperature difference: thermoelectric technology for energy harvesting". He has published extensively in the area of nanoscale energy transport and conversion and nanoscale heat transfer. He serves on the editorial boards for four journals in heat transfer and nanotechnology and chaired the advisory board of ASME Nanotechnology Institute. He is the director of Solid-State Solar-Thermal Energy Conversion Center funded by the US DOE's Energy Frontier Research Center's program. He co-founded GMZ Energy.
