In this work, the chosen physicochemical properties of single-phase multicomponent oxides BaTi1/8Fe1/8Co1/8Y1/8Zr1/8Sn1/8Ce1/8Hf1/8O3-δ and BaTi1/9Fe1/9Co1/9Y1/9Zr1/9Sn1/9Ce1/9 Hf1/9Bi1/9O3-δ were studied. The microstructure of the compounds strongly depended on the presence of bismuth in the structure. The electrical transport studies showed a level of electrical conductivity of ∼10−3 - 10−2 S/cm in the temperature range 673–1073 K. Electrical conductivity was thermally activated and the dominant conduction mechanism was the hopping of small polarons. Moreover, total electrical conductivity changes in the dry and humidified atmosphere at lower temperatures due to the presence of protonic defects in the structure. Thermoelectric measurements showed a relatively high value of the Seebeck coefficient for studied ceramics. Its values ranged between 50 and 250 μV/K depending on the sample and temperature. The Seebeck coefficient sign was positive, meaning that electron holes and/or oxygen vacancies were predominant charge carriers in oxidizing atmospheres. Additionally, the Seebeck coefficient was found to be different in the humidified atmosphere which indicates an influence of protonic defects on thermoelectric transport. The obtained power factor Pf turned out to be low and dependent on the presence of protonic defects in the structure. This indicates, that the efficiency of the MOs-based operating thermoelectric generators can be controlled by changing the partial pressure of water vapor
