他继续说：“热电装置将热量转化成电能，这些热量可以来自太阳或者温差，比如白天到夜晚的温差。”
He continued: 'Thermoelectric devices convert heat to electrical energy and this can be from the sun or a drop in temperature such as day temperatures to night.

Hagelstein says that with present systems it's possible to efficiently convert heat into electricity, but with very little power.
如果这种加热器都安装上能付诸连续使用太阳光热电发电机，那么首先，电能能够从中提取。
If such heaters were covered with thermoelectric generators the sun's rays could be put to sequential use. First, electric power would be extracted from them.
科学家们称，如果这些热电子能够在转化成热能浪费掉之前被捕获，光电能量转化可以达到最高66%的效率。
If the energy of these hot electrons could be captured before it is converted into wasted heat, solar-to-electric power-conversion efficiencies could be increased to as high as 66%, say scientists.
报告非常恰当地确定了热电联合系统——也就是说，既利用由燃烧农作物而产生的热能也利用电能所产生的热——利用当地种植的能源农作物是降低温室效应气体排放的最有利的方法。
The report correctly identifies CHP - that is using the heat produced from burning as well as the electricity - with locally grown energy crops as the best way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
