Wow, check out Whirlpool’s new concept kitchen. It’s working towards saving some of that energy and resource waste we see daily between all our appliances.

60% of the water and heat generated from appliances is “diverted” to fuel other appliances or functions in the eco-kitchen. Through this integrated use of appliances, with the concept taking its model from the cycle of nature, it optimises the use of heat and water with processes that increase energy efficiency up to 70%. For example, the kitchen allows you to use the heat produced by the fridge compressor, the only appliance to operate 24 hours a day, to produce hot water for the dishwasher.
