ABSTRACT
This work demonstrates that the introduction of photocatalysts is an effective strategy to enhance the thermopower of thermogalvanic cells. Meanwhile, this pioneering system combines the generation of electricity with the production of H2, harnessing energy from solar radiation. Future research in this field will be delved into investigating alternative photocatalysts and redox couples, thereby further improving the efficiency of energy conversion.
