“From sustainable ridesharing options to more efficient cooling systems for city dwellers, this year’s winners reflect our industry’s commitment to protecting the planet for generations to come.” said Walter Alcorn, vice president of environmental affairs and industry sustainability, CTA.
Smart cooler
Booth #52502
“The climate in Singapore is extremely hot and humid. We knew if we could achieve a breakthrough here in the most challenging conditions to cool, we would make a real difference in the world.” Says Li Fuyun, head at ST Engineering Innosparks‘ which developed the Airbitat Compact Cooler. The smart device delivers breakthrough deep cooling with energy-efficient performance in hot and humid climates. While other conventional coolers struggle to cool with output at 27-28oC, Airbitat Smart Cooler delivers airstreams from 24oC, creating cool refreshing spaces in outdoor and semi-shaded spaces.
Sharing solar energy
