Reviews Ecohive

Energy is an important part of 21st-century human life. It is needed for individual, commercial/ industrial and transportation purposes. At the individual level, with the household being the basic, it is needed to provide power for activities like watching television, lighting the home, ironing, washing, cooking, taking a shower and even heating the home. Residential uses of energy account for about 40 per cent of total global energy consumption. There are also the commercial uses of energy, which means companies’ use for industrial, manufacturing, and/or running their commercial activities. The transportation industry is another category of energy user, perhaps the most dependent of all categories. Over seventy per cent of petroleum used globally goes to this sector, as it includes the use of cars, buses, aircraft, trains, ships, etc. Hence, globally, innovations such as the introduction of more fuel-efficient vehicles and the development of alternative sources of energy for the transport system are being facilitated to address the energy requirement of this sector. On an individual scale, insulation helps to keep the desired temperature in your house all through the year, providing protection against excess heat of summer and cold of winter. It is an energy-efficient method that reduces the cost of additional heating and cooling. Areas of the house that can be insulated are the roof, windows, walls, floors and doors. However, the most important place is the walls, because a typical house’s walls will lose about 40 per cent of the heat. The roof will lose 25 per cent, the windows and doors 20 per cent. With the above analysis, it is easy to conclude that insulating the walls is already half of the work done. The benefits of home insulation are considerable. Apart from the obvious advantage of reducing energy cost, it also prevents moisture condensation; reduces the emission of pollutants and carbon footprints of power plants; reduces noise level; provides safety and protection for the people living in the house; protects against fire and improves the appearance of the house.
