WINNING PROJECTS

GOLD

I2COOL Limited (Hong Kong, China)

Electricity-free cooling technology

無電製冷塗層於2021年11月正式推出香港市場。該塗層是以外太空為製冷源頭,通過高效的太陽反射和中紅外熱輻射實現低於環境溫度的製冷效果,塗覆錶面降溫可達40℃,有效節省30%以上的空調耗能。每塗覆1平方米的無電製冷塗層,每年便可節省高達430度電,降低250Kg碳排放。假設全大灣區的建築物都應用無電製冷塗層,每年大灣區能夠減少高達300億度電的能耗和1800萬噸碳排放,相當於為大灣區種植了45億棵樹。 此外,該款無電製冷塗層還已應用於戶外電箱、儲能電櫃、冷鏈運輸貨櫃車、太陽能板等場景,提升設備使用壽命或效率。i2Cool在不久的未來亦會將該項技術廣泛應用於車輛、雨傘、衣服等產品上,並著力於產品研發升級及差異化拓展的創新之中,致力於令節能創新科技融入大眾的日常生活,緩解能源短缺和氣候變化,推動可持續發展和經濟增長,邁向碳中和!
