Resumo: With global warming, days are becoming increasingly hotter, making the development of efficient and nonpolluting refrigeration systems essential. In this context, thermoelectric refrigeration emerges as a sustainable alternative, utilizing Peltier modules to transfer heat between two surfaces through the thermoelectric effect. This study aimed to analyze and map scientific production on thermoelectric devices applied to solar-powered air conditioning systems by conducting a bibliometric analysis of research published in the Scopus database, using Bibliometrix and VOSviewer for the analyses. The study evaluated 46 publications and provided an overview of the topic based on the following bibliometric indicators: most productive authors and institutions, publications by country, most relevant journals in the field, most cited articles, and recurring keywords. These findings are reflected in the research trends identified in this paper's bibliometric study, which analyzed 33 years of scientific production (1991-2024), showing a significant increase in publications since 2015. China stood out as the country with the largest scientific contribution, while the journals Energy and Renewable Energy established themselves as the most relevant in the field. The findings highlight the potential of Peltier devices in developing sustainable air conditioning prototypes, providing cooling without emitting harmful gases and contributing to sustainability. Additionally, the integration of solar energy enhances the system's energy efficiency, helping to overcome the lower efficiency of sustainable cooling systems compared to conventional technologies. This perspective will assist researchers in identifying promising areas for investigation and guide investments in research and development (R&D) based on scientific trends. Thus, this work aims to foster scientific progress in sustainable cooling technologies that reduce pollutant emissions, promote a cleaner environment, and help mitigate the worsening effects of global warming.
