6 Home Technologies to Save Energy


Along with the development of technology, energy use also increases, especially its use in households. Household appliances such as refrigerators, irons, air conditioning, and many others require a lot of energy to use. This enormous use of energy has led some innovators to think for the future.


several technological breakthroughs to reduce energy consumption levels have been made. Here are some of these new technologies.


1. Smarthome

Technological developments have penetrated the property world. This is evidenced by the large number of home hardware such as air conditioners, lights, and others that are connected to the internet so you can monitor and reduce electricity consumption.


2. Ultra-efficient Heat Pumps

The Building Technologies Office is building a future heat pumping system that can both cool and warm your home by transferring heat from one room to another.


3. Carbon Based Clothes Dryer

This appliance will have the same concept as the previous heat pump technology but it can have another function as your clothes dryer. Oak Ridge State Laboratory and General Electric are developing a new clothes dryer that takes advantage of a heat pump cycle to generate heat that can be used to dry clothes.


4. Magnetic Refrigerator

Oak Ridge Laboratories and General Electric work together to build a revolutionary refrigerator that uses magnets to cool and lower the temperature inside. This technique is called the magnetocaloric effect, which means lowering and increasing the temperature using a magnetic field. As long as you know, refrigerators use refrigerants that are harmful to the environment.


5. Next-Gen Insulation

Insulation or insulation is one of the important things in the house in order to reduce energy in the use of air conditioning. The Industrial Science and Technology Network is developing a new insulation foam made from an environmentally friendly material. Later, this foam insulation can be more effective in preventing cool air from leaving the room.


6. Roof Made of Reflective

Thanks to developments from Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and PPG Industries, a roof is created that can make your home cool because it contains a special pigment material that can reflect sunlight and absorb less heat. This innovation will clearly reduce the use of air conditioning to cool the space. (AKB)

Awareness of Children to Save Energy

In Germany, children's approaches to eco-friendly ideas take many forms. A school, for example, produces electricity through solar panels and students can monitor energy use directly through a cellphone application. LED light saves a lot of energy. But the light contains more of the blue spectrum and cold light. With that, the sky above the city grew even brighter. This phenomenon is called light pollution. A rare sight: Clear skies In order to see the sky like this, one must now go to a faraway place. To a location far from civilization, on a deserted beach, or in the mountains. Wherever there are humans, the sky is always illuminated by artificial light. The result: the starlight fades and the possibility that one day the tark is again visible. LED light: Brighter and cheaper The newest types of lamps are very energy efficient, therefore they are increasingly being used. And there is another effect: for street lighting, cold white light of different wavelengths is often used. Thi...

How does the laser work

All lasers are made up of three components: External pump source Active laser media Resonator The pump source guides external energy to the laser. The active laser media is located inside the laser. Depending on the design, the laser medium can consist of a gas mixture (CO2 laser), from a crystal body (YAG laser) or glass fibers (fiber laser). When energy is fed into the laser medium through a pump, it emits energy in the form of radiation. The active laser medium lies between two mirrors, the "resonator". One of these mirrors is a one-way mirror. The active media laser radiation is amplified in the resonator. At the same time, only certain radiation can leave the resonator through the one-way mirror. This bundled radiation is laser radiation. Laser beam property: monochromatic and high coherence Laser radiation has three basic properties: Monochromatic. This means that the radiation consists of only one wavelength. High coherence and hence an accidental phase. The laser wave...

Energy Saving Technology

The cost of electricity has more than doubled for businesses over the last decade. But today, the phrase "going green" is widely talked about in relation to business survival, which is to reduce the impact on the environment. But surveys show many companies are still struggling to understand the technology available and are wary about the upfront costs involved. Technology of Business offers guidance on the most effective ways for businesses to cut their energy bills and start operations more naturally and sustainably. LED lighting Turning to LED - Light Emitting Diode - lighting is the quickest and simplest way any business action can be taken to reduce energy use, argues Myles McCarthy, director of implementation at the Carbon Trust. A traditional 60 watt incandescent bulb will produce about 750 to 1,000 lumens - a measure of lighting power - but 95% of the energy used to create light would normally be wasted in heat. Modern LED bulbs are much more thermally efficient and c...
