– Returns of scale
• Barrier for
introduction
– High switching cost
• Policy
– Tax cut & subsidy

9. Future trends
• Main trend – green
trend
• Influence product
design

14. Paper bags and plastic
bags
Paper bags
•Paper comes from trees
•made from a renewable resource
•can biodegrade
•are recyclable
Plastic bags
•Plastic comes from oil
•Can be reused
•Non-biodegradable
•Highly recyclable

15. Facts
• On Resource Use – Renewable Versus Non-
Renewable Resources
• On Manufacturing - Plastic Bag Manufacturing
is More Environmentally Friendly
• On Solid Waste – Paper Generates More
Waste
• On Recycling - Both Bag Types are Highly
Recyclable
• On Reuse – Plastic Outperforms Paper

16. LED’s
Positives
• Long lasting
• Very less power consumption
• More brighter
• 50,000 hours or more if properly engineered
• Very Low energy consumption
• No mercury is used as in CFL’s
• Available in a multitude of colors
• Pure white light means no color will be filtered out.
• Low functioning temperature
Negatives
• Less potential output
• Slightly more expensive to purchase

17. Incandescent Bulbs
Positives
• Cheap
• Be generally stronger light output
• Better for seeing through Fog and Smoke
Negatives
• Very short life about 1000 hours
• Very inefficient
• Heavy on power consumption
• Yellowish color filters out anything with
yellow in it, i.e., White looks yellow,
yellow doesn’t show, red looks brown,
green looks black.

18. Natural Gas
• CNG –compressed natural gas
• It is substitute fossil fuel for DIESEL,PETROL,PROPANE

gasoline and diesel
• CNG-powered vehicles have lower maintenance costs than other
hydrocarbon-fuel-powered vehicles
• Increased life of lubricating oils
Drawbacks
• It require a greater amount of space for fuel storage than conventional
gasoline powered vehicles
• Increased vehicle cost

19. Petroleum Fuel
Advantages
• It is highly available
• it can provide better performance
• It is fairly safe to store
• Due to its liquid form, it is easy to transport
Disadvantages

global warming
• It is a limited resource

20. Some Electrical appliances
Refrigerators & Air Conditioners
• Digital Inverter Technology in Compressor
• Comes with energy rating
Televisions
• LED is preferable to LCD
• It consumes up to 40% less power for the same
size display

21. Drawbacks of Green
Product
