Abstract

With the increasing demand for energy and the climate challenges caused by the consumption of traditional fuels, there is an urgent need to accelerate the adoption of green and sustainable energy conversion and storage technologies. The integration of flexible thermoelectrics with other various energy conversion technologies plays a crucial role, enabling the conversion of multiple forms of energy such as temperature differentials, solar energy, mechanical force, and humidity into electricity. The development of these technologies lays the foundation for sustainable power solutions and promotes research progress in energy conversion. Given the complexity and rapid development of this field, this review provides a detailed overview of the progress of multifunctional integrated energy conversion and storage technologies based on thermoelectric conversion. The focus is on improving material performance, optimizing the design of integrated device structures, and achieving device flexibility to expand their application scenarios, particularly the integration and multi-functionalization of wearable energy conversion technologies. Additionally, we discuss the current development bottlenecks and future directions to facilitate the continuous advancement of this field.
