Background
Globally, the honeybee population is drastically declining. Environmental organizations name climate change as its biggest cause. Bees, as temperature-sensitive creatures, couldn't adapt to the unprecedented abnormal climate.
Bees are the world’s most important pollinators, and declining bee populations pose a serious threat to global food security and nutrition. In fact, one-third of the world’s food supply — or one out of every three bites of food we eat — relies on bees. The extinction of honeybees affects not just 90% of wild flora, but also the animals and people who feed on those, and further the entire biodiversity.
To spearhead the conservation of the honeybee population, we utilized solar panels to protect the honeybees by manufacturing a smart beehive: the Solar Beehive. With the Solar Beehive, we contribute to the Earth’s biodiversity, and eventually remark the B2B brand Hanwha as a sustainable brand to the public, raising the favorability and the reputation.

Strategy & Execution
The Solar Beehive is a smart beehive optimized to protect honeybees from abnormal climates. What’s special about the Solar Beehive is the ‘bee-friendly design’. From the bee entrance size, depth of feed container, temperature-humidity controller position, and the exterior design, everything was designed to be ‘bee-friendly’ so that honeybee can thrive in an optimal environment.
Four smart devices (Water & Food Supply / Temperature & Humidity Control / CO2 Concentration Control / Hornet Intrusion Detection & Blocking) were installed to provide the best honeybee habitat. All electrical power is sourced from the solar panels, without emitting carbon.

Results
- Website with data collected from the Solar Beehive has reached 200,000 visitors within a month
-The honeybee dataset is emphasized worldwide, but it is de facto the first non governmental honeybee dataset collected in Korea(1 year)
- Case study on Solar Beehive was presented at the academic conference of The Apicultural society of Korea
- Inquiries on collaboration from foreign countries (Spain, Slovenia)
-Film of campaign recorded 39,211,843 views, accounting for 85% of the Korean population
