Abstract:
A vehicle has a heat-emitting component and a thermoelectric generator, which has a heat-absorbing component thermally coupled with the heat-emitting component, and which generates electric energy from the temperature gradient between the heat-absorbing element and a heat sink. The thermoelectric generator is arranged directly on the heat-emitting component and is connected thereto in a thermally conductive manner.
