الحديقة التى تعمل يالطاقة الشمسية في سنغافورة || SOLAR-POWERED Supertrees of Singapore Garden
Singapore’s premier urban outdoor
recreation space right next to Marina Bay Sands, unveiled a new
attraction last month – a cutting-edge horticultural mega project
featuring 18 towering solar-powered “supertrees” and climate-controlled
biomes. These tree-like structures that dominate the Gardens’
landscape with heights ranging between 25 meters and 50 meters, are like
vertical gardens that perform a multitude of functions, which include
providing plants, shading and working as environmental engines for the
gardens.The Supertrees are home to enclaves of unique and exotic ferns,
vines, orchids and also a vast collection of bromeliads such as
Tillandsia, amongst other plants. They are fitted with environmental
technologies which mimic the ecological function of trees – photovoltaic
cells that harness solar energy and can be used for some of the
functions of the Supertrees, such as lighting, just like how trees
photosynthesize; and collection of rainwater for use in irrigation and
fountain displays, just like how trees absorb rainwater for growth. The
Supertrees also serve air intake and exhaust functions as part of the
conservatories’ cooling systems.
The entire project is estimated to have cost more than $1 billion.

There is an elevated walkway between two of the larger Supertrees for
visitors to enjoy a breathtaking aerial view of the Gardens. A food and
beverage outlet is planned atop the 50-meter Supertree. At night, the
Supertrees come alive with a light and music show called the OCBC Garden
Rhapsody.The entire project is estimated to have cost more than $1 billion.
