thermoelectrically

/θˌɜmoʊɪlˈɛktɹɪkli/ adv

By thermoelectric means.

Word Origin Thermoelectrically marries Greek therme 'heat' and elektron 'amber' — the fossilized tree resin that when rubbed produces static electricity. So thermoelectricity is heat-generated electricity. The thermo- root gives us thermometer, thermostat, and thermal, while electr- gives us electric, electron, and even electrode. The word is a mouthful of suffixes, but the core is a surprising pair: heat and amber.
