Planning Projects

Shanghai, China – Shallow underground space use approaching saturation, deep underground space is targeted under a new planning initiative to scale up infrastructure stock. (Li and Fan, 2018)

QingDao, China – Assessment of Urban Underground Space across the city and vertical layout planning already undertaken. (Qiao et al, 2018)

Hong Kong, China – Tools have been developed to inform optimal cavern configuations for energy consumption and Image care of HSY.FI operational costs. (Ross et al, 2018) Helsinki – Blominmäki Waste Water Treatment Plant • Cater to 1,000,000 residents • >150,000m3 per day Progress in Singapore
