Abstract : The following research considering proper usage of unused energy generated by humans in the form of heat and
solar cells by making wearable shirt was designed and manufactured for charging the electronic devices such as mobile
phone,laptop,etc. Integration of flexible solar cells and TEG into clothing can provide power for portable electronic devices.
Photovoltaic is the most advanced way of providing electricity far from any mains supply, although it suffers from the limits
of ambient light intensity. Alternatively human body heat is integrated for better outcomes, .The solar & TEG circuit consist
of solar panel and thermoelectric generator; composed of two sources attached. Solar energy directly from sun radiation into
electricity and TEG generate electricity from temperature difference. We introduced clothing-integrated photovoltaic and
TEG their scope and limitations, the status of flexible solar Cells and TEG, charge controller and system design, as well as
prototype solutions for various applications. The ability to harvest energy from the environment represents an important
technology area that promises to eliminate wires and battery maintenance for many important applications and permits
deploying self powered devices. This project paper suggests the use of a solar energy and body heat harvester to charge
mobile phone devices proves its efficiency to charge the aimed batteries under sunlight and body heat separately. The wires
and other accessories were attached inside the shirt, charging pins were placed inside the pockets of shirt. The designed shirt
not only serves the purpose of wearing but also charges the electronic devices. It is cheap, easy to detach, washable and gives
comfort to wearer
