Abstract: A display apparatus is provided. The display apparatus includes a display panel, a chassis configured to support the display panel, a backlight unit configured to be installed on the chassis, and an electricity generator configured to use the backlight unit as a heat source to generate electricity. The electricity generator includes a heat transfer unit which contacts the backlight unit, at least one heat storage unit which contacts the heat transfer unit, and at least one thermoelectric device comprising a heat generator and a heat absorber contacting the heat transfer unit. The at least one thermoelectric device absorbs heat, which is generated from the backlight unit, through the heat transfer unit in response to the backlight unit being driven and absorbs heat from the at least one heat storage unit through the heat transfer unit in response to the backlight unit not being driven.
