Abstract Water scarcity is an enduring worldwide concern, especially in areas experiencing groundwater depletion, unpredictable rainfall, and lack of access to centralized water infrastructure. Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG) is a promising decentralized option by harvesting moisture straight from surrounding air. This study introduces development, and experimental test of a solar-powered Peltier-assisted Atmospheric Water Recovery System based on dew-point condensation using thermoelectric cooling under different climatic conditions. A systematic review of 30+ state-of-the-art AWG papers identified major challenges in current systems, namely high energy consumption, poor condensation surface efficiency, and low adaptability for off-grid implementation. The suggested prototype combines TEC1-12706 thermoelectric modules, optimized heat sink-fan assemblies, and a sustainable power source to boost water condensation rate with low power loss. Experimental testing was successful in producing water at various temperature–humidity conditions with a maximum yield of ≈15 mL/hour at 28–31°C and 65–75% RH using an enhanced condensation surface. Results confirm the viability of a compact and mobile AWG system for rural, emergency, and water-stressed areas. Additional advancements in thermal management and air–water contact efficiency can facilitate scalable and energy-efficient deployment. This paper adds a sustainable, refrigerant-free, and environment-friendly solution toward SDG-6: Clean Water and Sanitation, solidifying Peltier-based AWG as a potential entry to future water security.
