This document is the final report to the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) covering the project performance and results for the development, build, and demonstration of a thermoelectric generator for use on a diesel bus. The thermoelectric generator was built by Hi-Z,Inc., and installed on a 2007 GILLIG diesel bus owned and operated by the Central Florida Regional Transportation Authority, dba LYNX. The report contains an overview and includes a summary of work completed, involved partners, difficulties encountered, data results, lessons learned, advancements made, and recommendations for future research. This document will also serve as a source of information to be used by organizations in the industry for future projects. This is the final report for the thermoelectric generator demonstration project; all work reported is complete and final.
