Solar powered air conditioning blinds

COMMENTS: 3

Talk about multi-tasking all into one simple device.

The Blind Air Conditioner concept by Minjoo Kwon would be designed with solar panels along the tops of the blinds, so that when the blinds were lowered to block out the sun, they would also be absorbing the energy needed to run the AC-unit that is so cleverly built into the the panels.

Using solar energy to power an air-conditioning system makes so much sense. When do we run our ACs? When it’s hot and the sun is shinning.

It’s really brilliant.
