Energy Efficiency
Buildings consume nearly 40% of global energy, with inefficient insulation and poor thermal performance in conventional materials leading to higher energy costs and a significant environmental impact. This inefficiency contributes to substantial carbon emissions and increased utility bills. As climate change drives more extreme temperatures, the demand for heating and cooling is only increasing, making energy efficiency more critical than ever. Rising energy prices are adding to the economic burden for homeowners and businesses alike. Energy efficiency is crucial not only for reducing costs but also for minimizing the overall environmental impact of buildings.
