GREEN TECHNOLOGY

What is GREEN Technology?


GREEN Technology is environmental technology or clean technology that is researched and developed to conserve our natural resources and our surrounding environment. And it is to curb negative impact of human involvement.


GREEN Technology is also help to sustain energy and our natural resources in order for our FUTURE generation to enjoy.




Where is GREEN Technology Today?


Automotive Industry


GREEN Technology can be found on Automotive industry. In fact this is one of focus area today as everyone drives one of this automobile everyday. 


Electric Car or Hybrid Car are the product which is being developed as to reduce the fossil fuel usage as it produce toxic gases to our environment. 


It is still not a matured or practical enough at this moment as the industry is still facing problem to tackle the waste created during production of the battery. And the hybrid car is still not as efficient as it is suppose to be.

Solar Panel


SOLAR Energy from Solar Panel is another area where it tap on our SUN solar as source of energy. 


It is clean energy however again the industry is facing much bigger problem to deal with the hazardous waste escaping into environment during the making of the panel.

LED Lighting


LED Lighting is solid state light that used Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) as source of light replacing Incandescent, Halogen and Fluorescent light.

In the last 3 years, the research and development in this lighting area have made a big leap in improving the technology capable of replacing the old lighting technology and at the same time bring down the cost so that it can be afford.


LED Lighting will REDUCE tremendously the frequency needed to change on the traditional bulb mainly due to its much longer service life (6 - 7 times more longer).

LED Lighting also REDUCE tremendously on electrical energy usage. LED itself produces much lesser heat compare to Incandescent, Halogen or Fluorescent light technology hence it is much more efficient.

LED Lighting is the next generation of LIGHTING technology that will eliminate the use of Mercury Vapor in our current Lighting that we use at home. You can click HERE for more information about MERCURY.
