on 06/16/2010, filed in Home > Green

LG has announced Korea’s first eco-friendly residential hybrid air conditioner, the F-Q232LASS. This device doesn’t solely rely on your electrical outlet to get its juice, rather it’s partially powered by solar energy gathered through the solar cell module attached to the top of the outdoor unit. According to the company, not only does this air conditioner help you skimp on your electricity bill, it’s also environmentally friendly , as it apparently helps reduce approximately 212kg of carbon dioxide over 10 years, though how the magic works wasn’t mentioned.

LG: LG Corporation is a South Korean conglomerate that is based in Seoul. LG operates a number of subsidiaries including LG Electronics, LG Display, LG Telecom, and LG Chem. The conglomerate specializes in developing electronics, telecom products, and chemicals. LG Corp. was founded in 1947 by Koo In-Hwoi. Koo first established Lak-Hui Chemical Industrial Corp. in 1947. Today, Lak-Hui (pronounced lucky) is known as LG Chem. The company then expanded its business and created Goldstar Co. Ltd, now known as LG Electronics Inc. Both companies merged and formed Lucky-Goldstar, which was eventually renamed “LG” in 1995.
