Alphabet Energy, Inc. today announced the availability of the Alphabet Energy PowerModule™ as a standalone product. Now, any energy-intensive industry including automotive, commercial trucking, industrial manufacturing, defense, oil and gas, and mining can custom design solutions to fit their unique needs and convert exhaust heat into valuable electricity. The Alphabet Energy PowerModule™ is a solid-state, liquid-cooled electrical generator that converts exhaust heat into electricity using Alphabet Energy’s proprietary PowerBlocks™ thermoelectric materials.
Thoroughly tested in Alphabet Energy’s first product, the E1™ Thermoelectric Generator (there are 32 PowerModules in an E1™), the PowerModule™ directly accepts exhaust heat with a temperature ranging from 350 600 degrees C and transforms it into dc electricity, delivering up to 850 Watts of power.

“It has long been our goal to be known as the ‘Intel Inside,’ or in our case, the ‘Alphabet Inside’ of waste heat recovery,” said Dr. Matthew Scullin, founder and CEO, Alphabet Energy. “The scalable nature of the PowerModule enables both energy and design efficiency, bringing the benefits of waste heat recovery to even more markets. Now, almost any owner of exhaust heat can generate valuable electricity.”
