Solar Serpents In Paradise By Mans Tham Architect

<!-- /adman_adcode_beginning --><a id="dd_start"></a><small>December 23rd, 2013 – Posted in Architecture</small><br/><p>This project explores how architectural design and style could alter both the function and the narrative of the most symbolic structure of modern society: the freeway. The <strong>Solar Serpents</strong> would be connected to the grid and the power produced would be quickly sucked up locally with no transmission costs or losses.</p><br/><img alt="solar serpents in paradise by mans tham architect Solar Serpents In Paradise By Mans Tham Architect architecture " height="315" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/solar-serpents-in-paradise-by-mans-tham-architect.jpg" title="Solar Serpents in Paradise by Mans Tham Architect 1" width="500" /><br/><p><em>Courtesy of Mans Tham Architect and Urban Strategist</em></p><br/><p>The panels can be produced, employed and recycled in the exact same city hence benefiting the local economy at all stages in the life of the urban solar energy plant. The cost for this project is compared to numerous other energy plants rather predictable. The roads themselves will be much less exposed to UV degradation and the expense of gas/electricity for AC will be reduced for the men and women driving in the solar serpent.</p><br/><img alt="solar serpents in paradise by mans tham architect Solar Serpents In Paradise By Mans Tham Architect architecture " height="328" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/solar-serpents-in-paradise-by-mans-tham-architect_.jpg" title="Solar Serpents in Paradise by Mans Tham Architect 2" width="500" /><br/><p><em>Courtesy of Mans Tham Architect and Urban Strategist</em></p><br/><p>Solar panels need to have unshaded sun which makes freeways with their large clearing an ideal web site. Mounted above a road they also provide shade that would lower the use of air conditioning on sunny days. And also: The high cost of UV degradation of paved freeway surfaces would lower and noise will go down for the people living next to the freeway.</p><br/><img alt="solar serpents in paradise by mans tham architect Solar Serpents In Paradise By Mans Tham Architect architecture " height="376" src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/solar-serpents-in-paradise-by-mans-tham-architect__.jpg" title="Solar Serpents in Paradise by Mans Tham Architect 3" width="500" /><br/><p><em>Courtesy of Mans Tham Architect and Urban Strategist</em></p><br/><p>This project was worked on the 24 kilometer extended stretch of the Santa Monica freeway among downtown and the beach. On typical it is 40 m wide. This gives us a paved surface of 10 million square feet.The Solar Serpent would give the freeway a radically various and bold presence in the city. Recharging stations along it clearly explains the connection amongst production and usage.</p><br/><p> <span><br/><img alt="pixel Solar Serpents In Paradise By Mans Tham Architect architecture " src="http://www.decoradvisor.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/pixel____________________.png" title="Solar Serpents In Paradise By Mans Tham Architect architecture " /></span><br/><p><small>This entry was posted on Monday, December 23rd, 2013 at 4:35 am and is filed below Architecture.
