Aries International Interiors, a UAE-based company announced its development of the first-of-its-kinds air-conditioned bed that runs on solar energy making it eco-friendly and cost-effective.
According to the company’s statement, the concept, which was designed in association with Aries International Maritime Research Institute (AIMRI) is going to be extremely useful for the Middle Eastern region and in remote villages of countries in Asia and Africa.
Sohan Roy, a Naval Architect who brought the idea forth said: “Conventional air-conditioning systems account for 25-70 percent of household’s annual energy expenses. Today 90 percent of consumers rely on plant-made electricity, especially from fossil fuel as a major source of power even though global warming is becoming a major threat to human lives.”
The solar-powered AC be is going to hit the market by the first week of December.
