In a general sense, waste heat is everywhere: the heat your car engine generates, for example. But in 2008, new research indicated that silicon performed much better as a nanowire. Too much waste heat is used, and, as that hot-to-cold margin drops, you can’t generate as much thermoelectric power. That heat normally dissipates.
