Converting Heat to Dollars
When fossil fuels are burned to produce useful energy, a substantial amount of waste heat energy is produced as a byproduct. Whether up the smokestack or out the tailpipe, it is energy that is lost forever. How much heat? Well, automobiles and conventional steam generation plants are 30% to 40% efficient. This means 60% to 70% is waste heat. Recovering just a fraction of all this waste represents billions of dollars of annual savings.

TXL Group, Inc. is a Texas corporation that manufactures thermoelectric solutions for capturing waste heat energy and turning it into dollars. The escalating cost of electrical power, coupled with incentives for green energy, creates a climate where the capital costs of deployment are recoverable in reasonable timeframes, after which the energy capture is free.

Thermoelectric generation is the direct conversion of heat energy into electrical energy. Unlike waste heat harvesting alternatives, like cogeneration and organic Rankine cycles, thermoelectric solutions may be scaled to the application. Generated electricity may be used locally or tied into the electrical grid for remote use. There are no moving parts. And future opportunities are boundless: geothermal heat, thermal gradients in ocean currents, even roadway heat!

It is an endless harvest.
