Abstract
A thermoelectric power generation apparatus includes a heat transfer module configured to be attached to an exhaust manifold or an exhaust pipe; a thermoelectric module configured to be supplied with heat from the heat transfer module; and a cooling module configured to absorb heat from the thermoelectric module. Thus, it is possible to implement a thermoelectric power generation system in the vehicle without changing a shape of an exhaust system and a shape of the thermoelectric module.
