RE: Community Power
There are typically two ways to generate electricity from heat:

1] Using the heat to drive motion in an engine to turn an alternator
2] Using thermocouples to convert the heat directly to electricity
Engines tend to be better for 'large' amounts of electricity and thermocouples are better for 'small' amounts.
