Abstract:

HeatSpark Way is a smart and eco-friendly system that converts heat from roads directly into clean electricity. It uses Thermoelectric Generators (TEGs) based on the Seebeck effect, a scientific principle where a temperature difference between two surfaces generates electric current. Through this method, I successfully transform everyday road heat into usable electric power.

This electricity is then used to run smart self-charging vehicles, and also supports sustainable agriculture through a system I created called the Farm Warming Solution.

My project combines robotics, clean energy, and smart automation to tackle global issues like global warming, energy shortages, and pollution. The vehicles I designed use line-tracing sensors and obstacle detection to drive safely without needing external charging. My smart farm system uses VinTurbine wind power, rainwater collection, and automated irrigation and lighting, creating a farming method that uses natural energy efficiently and without waste.

HeatSpark Way shows that we can turn wasted heat and natural resources into useful energy, providing real solutions for transportation, farming, and power needs. This project proves that with creativity, robotics, and care for the environment, even a young student like me can help build a smarter, greener world.

It is my dream that one day, cities and farms everywhere can use systems like this — powered by nature, guided by technology, and built by youth. Abstract:

HeatSpark Way is a fully functional, eco-smart energy project that transforms both road heat and wind into clean electricity using a combination of Peltier modules, copper sheets, and a VinTurbine wind turbine.

At the heart of my system is Peltier thermoelectric technology, which uses the Seebeck effect to convert temperature differences into electricity. I embedded Peltier chips underneath road surfaces and used copper plates to help transfer the heat efficiently. As the sun heats the road, the copper conducts the thermal energy to one side of the Peltier module, while the other side stays cool. This process produces continuous electricity without any moving parts.

To ensure the system works in all weather conditions, I added a VinTurbine wind generator — a compact and sustainable wind turbine that generates clean energy from the wind. This wind turbine becomes especially important during cloudy or rainy days, when the road isn’t hot enough to activate the Peltier modules. The VinTurbine ensures that electricity is still available, keeping the system reliable day and night, rain or shine.

The clean energy collected powers two key areas:

Smart self-charging vehicles, powered directly by Peltier modules, with line-following and obstacle detection features — they charge as they move.

Farm Warming Solution, an intelligent vegetable farm system that uses VinTurbine wind energy, rainwater harvesting, smart moisture sensors, and adjustable LED lighting — all controlled by automation and clean energy sources.

What makes HeatSpark Way special is the integration of Peltier and copper for heat-based electricity and VinTurbine for wind-based electricity. Together, these technologies allow the system to generate power anytime, using nature's free resources — heat and wind.

This project proves that with the right design and imagination, even a student can create a multi-source energy system to help solve global challenges like pollution, energy shortage, and food sustainability.

With Peltier + Copper working from the ground, and VinTurbine capturing energy from the air, HeatSpark Way is a full-cycle green solution for the future — built by youth, powered by nature.
