The application of the recently discovered low-temperature thermoelectric material CsBi4Te6 in thermoelectric generators (TEG) for automotive cryogenic power systems is proposed. The maximum energy conversion efficiency of a considered TEG assembly within a cryogenic storage tank is estimated to be...
