Sustainable Air Conditioning Technologies: Innovations and Future Prospects
Abstract: The increasing demand for air conditioning across the globe, especially in emerging economies, has placed a significant strain on energy resources and contributed to rising greenhouse gas emissions. Conventional air conditioning systems, which largely rely on vapor compression cycles and high-GWP (global warming potential) refrigerants, are energy-intensive and environmentally unsustainable. In response to these challenges, there has been a growing focus on developing sustainable air conditioning technologies that are energy-efficient, …
