מה קרה

China has developed a roof-mounted misting system that sprays fine water droplets to cool buildings and surrounding air by up to 8 degrees Celsius, offering an energy-efficient alternative to air conditioning amid extreme heat waves.

• 01China uses rooftop high-pressure misting to cool buildings during extreme heat waves.
• 02The system lowers air and surface temperatures by 5 to 8 degrees Celsius within minutes.
• 03It consumes less electricity than standard air conditioners and evaporates droplets without wetting people.
• 04Cooling roofs reduces heat penetration into apartments, improving indoor comfort.
• 05Already installed in parks and bus stations, it signals a new climate-adaptive urban design.
• 06The innovation has gained international interest and may spread globally as a heat mitigation tool.
