This work theoretically demonstrates that a pair of Dirac nodes under a Zeeman field enhances anomalous Nernst conductivity (ANC) compared to Weyl semimetals. First-principles calculations on Na₃Bi and NaTeAu show sizable ANC values (0.4 Am⁻¹K⁻¹ and 1.3 Am⁻¹K⁻¹, respectively). A hypothetical alloy, NaFeTe₂Au₂, exhibits an even higher ANC (3.7 Am⁻¹K⁻¹). This research provides a design principle for enhancing ANC by manipulating electronic structure.
