Customized, Energy-Efficient Smart Home Solutions for All
Besides its premium built-in lineups and comprehensive packages, LG is presenting customized home solutions that are tailored to the needs of both multi- and single-family households and are suitable for a wide variety of spaces.

Meanwhile, in the Sustainable Home Solution Zone, the company is showcasing its comprehensive home energy solution, which includes the LG Energy Storage System (ESS).

The ESS is easily integrated not only with LG’s air-to-water heat pump and inverter water heater, but also with the company’s home appliances featuring the acclaimed Inverter Heat Pump. Powered by LG’s exclusive core components and motors, the laundry solutions from LG WashCombo with Inverter HeatPump™ and a dryer with DUAL Inverter Heat Pump™ save time while using less energy than a vented model, [2] helping to achieve home electrification.
Smart Home Solution for a Zero Labor Home
Highlighting the company’s ‘Zero Labor Home’ vision, the Zero Labor Home zone centers on LG’s ThinQ UP 2.0-compatible appliances incorporating the LG AI Appliance Chipset and designated operating system and the groundbreaking LG Smart Home AI Agent. Visitors can experience the differentiated value and unique capabilities of the Smart Home AI Agent and ThinQ™ through a range of real-life usage scenarios with LG’s home appliances. In a short video focusing on dinner preparation, the Smart Home AI Agent connects with the InstaView fridge and wall oven with built-in high definition camera to check available ingredients, recommend menus and provide cooking steps.
Revealed at this year’s CES, LG’s Smart Home AI Agent uses cutting-edge robotic and multi-modal technologies that enable it to move, learn and comprehend in order to help free people from the burden of household chores. Thanks to LG’s collaboration with Microsoft Azure Open AI, the Smart Home AI Agent is capable of engaging in more complex conversations with users.
“As people’s lifestyles become more diverse and complex, the demand for ultra-personalized solutions will continue to rise,” said Lyu Jae-cheol, president of LG Electronics Home Appliance & Air Solution Company. “The advanced home appliances and cutting-edge technologies we’re presenting at KBIS 2024 are designed to meet the needs of any and all users.
