The Thermoelectric Generator shows how this efficiency enhancement can be further developed in the future.

In his response, Dr. Klaus Draeger said: "We feel extremely honoured by what is now our third ?ûkoGlobe, which we have been awarded this time for our Thermoelectric Generator. It strengthens our resolve to continue developing BMW EfficientDynamics for the benefit of our customers and of the environment."
Up to September 2008, the BMW Group had already delivered more than 1 million vehicles with BMW EfficientDynamics technology to customers. 28 BMW Group models already have CO2 emissions of 140g CO2/km or lower. Until the end of this year 150 million litres of gasoline will be saved in comparison to 2006 and the environment will be disburdened of 370.000 tons CO2.
