Now AI is creating heat-reflective paint to beat the heat and lower bills

A new technology has been discovered called ac paint, which will reduce heat and keep buildings cool by 5 to 20 degrees Celsius. Which will drastically reduce the electric bill and it’s sustainable. While the price will be higher than the traditional paint, the money saved on electricity over time will make it a smart choice for a cooler and more sustainable future.

New Delhi: The summer heat has become increasingly intense these days. We all want our homes to be cool without paying a high electric bill. Now we can fundamentally change our cooling system without paying high bills. The new paint has been designed by scientists, “AI-designed AC paint, that is making waves in the world of sustainable technology. These keep buildings cool by 5 to 20 degrees Celsius as compared to normal paint.  

Why is this called AI paint?  

This technology has been developed with artificial intelligence and machine learning. Earlier, this process took months to make a new coat; now, with talking help of AI, this takes a few hours. AI research promises that it is a change in the fight against rising temperatures and saving energy costs.  

The principles of cool paint  

It is not just a white paint that reflects solar light. This paint is engineered to reflect a massive percentage of light- some formulas can reflect 95% of light. This means that the building will bounce back the light and heat just like a mirror, unlike how older paint used to absorb light.  

Even by reflecting 95%of the heat, some of the heat gets trapped. But it is designed to efficiently emit this absorbed heat as infrared radiation (Infrared radiation is heat that travels like light, but we cannot see it. It helps things cool down by sending heat away). The heat goes into outer space, a process known as "radiative cooling." These processes continue even after sunset to make the building cool down faster  

This new paint can help a lot of people:  

• Homeowners can save money on their energy bills every summer.  

• Businesses can keep large buildings like warehouses and factories cool without using massive amounts of energy.  

• Cities can become cooler places to live. The paint can help fight the "urban heat island effect," which is when cities get extremely hot because of all the concrete and buildings.  

In the next two years, this paint will be available to buy. While the price will be higher than the traditional paint, the money saved on electricity over time will make it a smart choice for a cooler and more sustainable future.
