    I mean it does seem kinda weird that running a heat engine to run a generator is more efficient than using a thermoelectric generator with no mechanical inbetween step.

        Very crude diagram of an electric boiler with three steps: 1 thing hot, 2 steam make spinny from hot, 3 magnet make power from spinny. Next to this is a very crude diagram of thermoelectric generator labelled magic semiconductor. Its steps are: 1 thing, 2 silicon make power from hot. There's a big arrow to the second diagram that say "Less steps = more efficient??"
