It might be interesting to use waste heat to power fans. That's right in that range for power needs, and it could be largely self-contained.
For something like a data center, that could add up.
Data centers will probably be the only practical application. Consumer electronics will probably barely produce enough energy to power the regulator and tie-in circuit just to feed back into the pwm driver for fans nowadays.
