    L/O/G/O PT. Trisula Teknologi Indonesia Integrating Agrophotovoltaic System and Internet of Thing (IoT) in Smart Greenhouse for Future Farmer 1. Agrophotovoltaic System for Smart Greenhouse in Hydroponic Farming PT.www.themegallery.com Trisula Teknologi Indonesia PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM A photovoltaic system, also PV system or solar power system, is a power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics. It consists of an arrangement of several components, including solar panels to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity, a solar inverter to convert the output from direct to alternating current, as well as mounting, cabling, and other electrical accessories to set up a working system. (Source : Wikipedia) PT.www.themegallery.com Trisula Teknologi Indonesia AGRIPHOTOVOLTAIC Agrivoltaics is co-developing the same area of land for both solar photovoltaic power as well as for agriculture.[1] This technique was originally conceived by Adolf Goetzberger and Armin Zastrow in 1981.[2] The coexistence of solar panels and crops implies a sharing of light between these two types of production. (Source : Wikipedia) Agrophotovoltaics (APV), a technology which combines the production of solar electricity and crops on the same land, has already been successfully demonstrated in pilot projects in several European countries. The Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE in cooperation with the Innovation Group “APV-Resola” have proven the feasibility of Agrophotovoltaics with a 194 kWp APV pilot system realized on a farm

  • Steven Holl Architects
    MUMBAI CITY MUSEUM NORTH WING DESIGN COMPETITION EXHIBITION Shortlisted Teams’ Summaries Steven Holl Architects Winner ADDITION AS SUBTRACTION: Mumbai City Museum’s new North Wing addition is envisioned as a sculpted subtraction from a simple geometry formed by the site boundaries. The sculpted cuts into the white concrete structure bring diffused natural light into the upper galleries. Deeper subtractive cuts bring in exactly twenty-five lumens of natural light to each gallery. The basically orthogonal galleries are given a sense of flow and spatial overlap from the light cuts. The central cut forms a shaded monsoon water basin which runs into a central pool. In addition to evaporative cooling, the pool provides sixty per cent of the museum’s electricity through photovoltaic cells located below the water’s surface. The white concrete structure has an extension of local rough-cut Indian Agra red stone. The circulation through the galleries is one of spatial energy, while the orthogonal layout of the walls foregrounds the spectacular Mumbai City Museum collections. MUMBAI CITY MUSEUM NORTH WING DESIGN COMPETITION EXHIBITION Shortlisted Teams’ Summaries AL_A Honourable mention Using the power of absence to create connections between the old and the new, a sunken courtyard or aangan, taking inspiration from the deep and meaningful significance of the Indian stepwell, is embedded between the existing Museum building and the new North Wing. The courtyard is a metaphor for the cycle of the seasons, capturing the dramatic contrasts of the climate in the fabric of the museum. It is a metaphor for the cycle of time, where people can rethink their place in the world in a space for contemplation and a place for art and culture.

  • Iea Pvps Annual Report 2019 Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme
    Cover photo THE INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE’S (IOC) NEW HEADQUARTERS’ PV ROOFTOP, BUILT BY SOLSTIS, LAUSANNE SWITZERLAND One of the most sustainable buildings in the world, featuring a PV rooftop system built by Solstis, Lausanne, Switzerland. At the time of its certification in June 2019, the new IOC Headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland, received the highest rating of any of the LEED v4-certified new construction project. This was only possible thanks to the PV system consisting of 614 mono-Si modules, amounting to 179 kWp and covering 999 m2 of the roof’s surface. The approximately 200 MWh solar power generated per year are used in-house for heat pumps, HVAC systems, lighting and general building operations.

    Surface Water Management Plan Water Resources | City of St. Louis Park Proposals are due 4:00 p.m. April 24, 2017 Executive Summary City of St. Louis Park Surface Water Management Plan Executive Summary Located in Hennepin County just west of Minneapolis, the 10.7-square-mile City of St. Louis Park is a fully developed suburban community. The population of St. Louis Park is approximately 48,000 residents, making it the 20th largest city in Minnesota. St. Louis Park contains a variety of physical and water resources including several wetlands and small lakes, wooded areas, parks, and recreational lands, as well as the Minnehaha Creek corridor. Two watershed management organizations (WMOs) cover St. Louis Park, each with its own governing body: the Bassett Creek Watershed Management Commission (BCWMC) and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD). This local Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP) was prepared in accordance with Minnesota Statute 103B.235 and Minnesota Rules 8410 and is intended to replace the 2009 plan. The purpose of this SWMP includes objectives outlined in Minnesota Statute 103B.201 for metropolitan water management programs. According to the statute, the purposes of these water management programs are to: • protect, preserve, and properly use natural surface and groundwater storage and retention systems; • minimize public capital expenditures needed to correct flooding and water quality problems; • identify and plan for means to effectively protect and improve surface and groundwater quality; • establish more uniform local policies and official controls for surface and groundwater management; • prevent the erosion of soil into surface water systems; • promote effective groundwater recharge; • protect and enhance fish and wildlife habitats and water recreational facilities; and • secure the other benefits associated with the proper management of surface and groundwater.
