Heres an example of day lighting at the Hong Kong SciencePark. Notice that the light is filtered through translucent skylights

and clerestories in a central atrium, thus reducing glare andoverheating. The top of the building has shades, see them afterthe jump:Sunshades are extensively incorporated into the

external facades to shield direct sunlight penetration,reducing heat gain to the office so as to reduceelectricity consumption for air conditioning

BIPV panels have been fitted to the facade, the louvers and the roof canopy

of the Buildings in Phase 1. The BIPV is connected to the electricity gridand have an approximately 200 kilo-Watt output.

The installation of BIPV panels can pursue new cleanenergy technologies, reduce consumption of naturalresources and cut emissions to the atmosphere. It cansave approximately 250MWh of electricity consumptionannually.

German Parliament 100% Renewable Power

The German Reichstag is expected to become the greenestparliament building in the world, thanks to a decision to rely solelyon renewable energy. From late summer the building is due toswap to green power sources such as water, wind and solarenergy, replacing the conventional power that it has largely reliedupon until now.Its extensive refurbishment in the late 1990s, including the glasscupola designed by the British architect Sir Norman Foster, hadalready won it plaudits. Ecologists praised the buildings energyefficiency, which has led to a 94% cut in its carbon emissions.

Its roof makes passive use of solar power and naturallight and its thick, well-insulated 19th-century walls help

retain warmth in winter and reduce the need for airconditioning in summer.At the moment biofuel generators in the basementproduce 40% of the buildings energy, for lighting,heating, the flow of air conditioning and water, while therest comes mainly from coal and nuclear supplies.

Green Towers In Malaysia Modeled After Fleet of Ships

Sustainable Tower in Malaysia

These unusual, onion-shaped towers are designed forPrecinct 4, or the Putrajayawaterfront in Malaysia (30 kilometers south of Kuala Kumpur).Designed by Studio Nicoletti Associati, was inspired by ship sails and traditional

Islamic architecture.(http://www.metaefficient.com/architecture-and-building/1282.html )

The architects goal was todesign buildings that tell of its

place of origin which is culturallymodern, Islamic and tropical innature. Added to this isNicolettis extensive experiencein design and construction forextreme climates.

The Italian firm broughtsustainable strategies liketerraces, sunshades, naturalventilation and integrated greenspace into the design.

The buildings will source fromalternative energy and areexpected to produce 50% lessCO2 emissions than similarresidential projects.

Innovative Tower To Feature Atrium Of Wind Turbines

Building on principles of biomimicry, Clean Technology Tower utilizes advanced technologies and

climate-appropriate building systems to foster a symbiotic relationship with its local environment.The tower is sited and formed to harness the power of natural forces at its site- but it refines theconventional methods of capturing those natural forces to significantly increase efficiency. Windturbines are located at the buildings corners to capture wind at its highest velocity as itaccelerates around the tower. The turbines become increasingly dense as the tower ascends andwind speeds increase. At the apex, where wind speeds are at a maximum, a domed double roofcavity captures air, allowing for a large wind farm and the use of negative pressures to ventilatethe interior spaces. The dome itself is shaded by photovoltaic cells that capture the southern sun.These systems provide both comfort and energy to the space.

New Record: Wind Powers 40% Of Spain

Wind Powersidea of renewable technology

Wind power is breaking new records in Spain,accounting for just over 40 percent of allelectricity consumed during a brief period lastweekend.

As heavy winds lashed Spain on Saturdayevening wind parks generated 9,862 megawattsof power which translated to 40.8 percent of total

consumption.

Between Friday and Sunday wind poweraccounted for an average of 28 percent of allelectricity demand in Spain. Spains wind powergeneration equaled that of hydropower for the

first time in 2007.

Spain, which along with Germany and Denmark,is among the three biggest producers of windpower in the 27-nation European Union, isaiming to triple the amount of energy it derives

from renewable sources by 2020.

Solar Powers

North Americas largest solar photovoltaic system is now

running and generating power about 30 million kilowatt-hours of electricity annually. The 14 megawatt power plantis at the Nellis Air Force Base in the sunny desert ofsouthern Nevada. Its expected to save about $1 million inpower costs annually, and reduce carbon dioxide emissionsby 24,000 tons each year.

The photovoltaic system is made up of 72,000 solar

panels. Its enough to provide 30% of the electricneeds on the base, where 12,000 people work and7,215 people live. But at 14 megawatts the poweroutput of this system is modest, compared to thesolar thermal Nevada One project which generates64 megawatts of power.

11 MW Solar Tower Complex Opens in Spain

The tower project is called PS10 and it uses 624 largemovable mirrors called heliostats. Each of the mirrors has asurface measuring 1,290 square feet that concentrates theSuns rays to the top of a 377 foot high tower where a solarreceiver and a steam turbine are located. The turbinedrives a generator, producing electricity.

PS10 is the first of a set of solar electric power generationplants to be constructed in the same area that will totalmore than 300 MW by 2013. Power generation will beaccomplished using a variety of technologies.

Europes first concentrated tower open recently near thesunny southern Spanish city of Seville. The 11 megawattplant took four years to build it was created by a Spanishenergy company, Solucar.

Madrid Spain Huge Air Tree Structure Produces Its Own Power and Oxygen

In Madrid, Spain they are currently building a huge structure called an AirTree orEcoBoulevard de Vallecas. The Tree was created by Urban Ecosystem to be a social center,and to improve the surrounding environment. The structure is also completely self-sufficient, generating all its own power with solar cells. Any surplus energy is sold to the

electrical grid. It also produces oxygen using its arrays of plants and trees, hence thetree appellation.
