How much can we save with more efficient use of energy?

Entega is a leading company that provide green energy in Germany, to raise awareness around the energy efficiency topic, “Der Stromfresser” (The Electricity Hog) an art installation in the shape of an igloo was set in one of the busiest places in Hamburg, it was built using 322 fridges. The hog was 5.6 meters high and 11 meters wide, and open 24 hours for a period of 12 days.

The idea was to focus on the fact that the wasted energy is still an energy that we can benefit from, this project was implemented during October/November during the cold weather, so whenever you go inside you will feel the warmth coming the rejected heat of the running fridges, and message was clear: Wastefulness is the Biggest Source of Energy. With more efficient use of energy, Germany could save 40%.

This is how they built it:

And this is how it looks on the inside
