In this study, an experimental investigation of electricity production from a thermoelectric cooler heated by solar energy heat pipe has been done. For this, a heat pipe with water as the working fluid has been manufactured. Approximately 300 ml of water storage is connected to the cold surface of the thermoelectric cooler. In the experiments, the highest opencircuit voltage is 1.75V.
