Wood stoves equipped with thermoelectric generators can produce electricity that is more sustainable, more reliable, and less costly than power from solar PV panels.
I can make solar all day long while it’s sunny. If I plan to keep my stove running all day long to produce power I have to go put the energy into getting enough wood to do that. That’s likely an obnoxious amount of wood for the amount of power output.
