1. A method, comprising:
determining, by a system coupled to a processor, a predicted amount of excess heat associated with a bake of an oven;
distributing an amount of coolant from a coolant reservoir to a coolant pathway that is necessary to dissipate the predicted amount of excess heat, wherein the coolant pathway is located within the oven and adjacent to generated excess heat, and wherein at least a portion of the coolant pathway extends from a bottom portion of the oven to a top portion of the oven;
evaporating the coolant using the generated excess heat to generate a gas;
powering a generator by a flow of the gas to generate electricity; and
storing the generated electricity in a battery.
