Claim 13:
14. A method, comprising:
determining, by a system coupled to a processor, a predicted amount of excess heat associated with an oven of a plurality of ovens during a bake;
determining a length of time that an inlet junction must be open to a first coolant pathway associated with the oven to allow for flow of an amount of coolant to the first coolant pathway, wherein the amount of coolant is based on the predicted amount of excess heat, and wherein at least a portion of the first coolant pathway extends from a bottom portion of the oven to a top portion of the oven;
opening the junction to the first coolant pathway for the length of time;
evaporating the coolant using 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.
