A New Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Algorithm for Thermoelectric Generators with Reduced Voltage Sensors Count Control †

This paper proposes a new maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm for thermoelectric generators (TEG). The new-presented method is based on implementing an indirect open circuit voltage detection and short circuit current estimation methods, which will be used to directly control the TEG inter...
