LG Electronics has achieved a record of 12 awards, including three grand prizes, at the 29th Energy Winner Awards, marking its 10th consecutive year of receiving the most awards in the industry. The company has expanded its energy-saving technology applications, winning accolades for air conditioners, commercial displays, and dishwashers.
The awards were announced by LG Electronics, which participated in the event organized by the Consumer Citizens' Association and supported by the Ministry of Climate, Energy, and the Korea Energy Agency.
The 'LG Whisen AI Object Collection Tower I' air conditioner received both the grand prize and the Minister of Climate and Energy Award. It features an 'AI Cold Free' function that controls both temperature and humidity, enhancing cooling efficiency by up to 13% compared to similar products. The company claims it can reduce electricity costs by up to 11.5%.
The LG E-Paper display also won the grand prize and the Korea Energy Agency Chairman's Award. Utilizing electronic paper technology that maintains the display without power and ultra-low power control technology, it reduces power consumption by over 99% compared to traditional digital signage.
The upcoming 'LG Dios AI Object Collection Dishwasher' also received a grand prize, marking the first time a dishwasher has won this award since its inception. The new model is expected to reduce electricity usage by about 10% and water consumption by approximately 18%, while also shortening the washing time by about 24 minutes.
This recognition highlights the growing competition in energy savings, extending beyond just reducing electricity consumption to also lowering water usage and operational time.
LG's Puricare Ice Water Purifier and Dios Stem Basic Refrigerator received Energy Technology Awards. Other products, including heat pumps, wall-mounted air conditioners, system air conditioners, bath air systems, wash combos, and stylers, were also recognized at the Energy Winner Awards.
Jung Jae-woong, Executive Vice President of LG Electronics' Customer Value Innovation Division, stated, "We will continue to introduce products and solutions that contribute to a sustainable future through differentiated technological innovations that enhance energy efficiency."
