	This paper presents the results of studies conducted to determine the possibility of generating power using stove-fireplace with accumulation. During studies described in the paper, thermoelectric generator with the nominal power of 10 W and maximum operation temperature of 150°C was tested. Obtained results allowed to define real performance of the used generators. However, further tests are still needed to obtain better energy efficiency of the tested micro-scale cogeneration system.
