A system and method for recovering heat energy from a vehicle, such as a car, truck, railroad, or airplane, is disclosed. The system and method include mounting a thermoelectric unit to the vehicle at one or more locations where a temperature gradient is expected. Due to the Seebeck effect, the thermoelectric unit generates a voltage and current, which may then be temporarily stored on the vehicle and/or transferred inductively to an off-vehicle location.
