Present status of emerging countries (middle class in India)
Tap water is available for only two to three hours a day. People usually sparingly use water stored in a tank. Because electricity is also in short supply and charges are very expensive, people make minimal use of electricity. They have some durables and usually use home electric appliances over a long time by having them repaired when necessary.

Each household has a tank to store water.
Water used for washing is reused for other purposes.Food and cooking
Most people cook at home, often using a lot of oil.
Supper starts rather late in the evening and people generally eat between meals.Living environment

Major means of transportation is road transportation. In cities there are heavy traffic jams and compressed natural gas-powered vehicles are used for public transportation to help protect the environment.Lifestyle proposals for emerging countries (India) for 2018: “Eco-balanced Growth” Model
In the midst of rapid economic growth, India faces power shortages, difficulty in accessing clean water, air pollution, public health problems, etc. On the other hand, Indians conserve electricity, water, and resources, and emphasize time spent with their families. We propose a healthy and smart lifestyle and a society where economic growth goes with ecology based on a traditional culture.
Based on the concept of Eco & Economical House, we propose for safe and economical lifestyles. In an Eco & Economical House, inverters, heat pumps, and other energy-saving appliances developed by utilizing our environmental technologies as well as equipment to save and recycle water will be utilized. In wealthier households, solar power generation facilities and energy/water management systems will also be proactively used.
