The furnaces, steam and turbines below the slope convert 440000 tons of waste into sufficient clean energy every year to provide electricity and district heating for 150000 households.
Assessment value of carbon emissions: 70% © CAAarchitects © In the face of the complexity of the global environment, CAA architects, although there is no immediate effect on the sustainability of buildings, many architectural firms and research institutions are making contributions to a healthier planet with the goal of achieving “carbon neutrality” due to the consideration and balance of the sustainable development of the full life cycle of the project.
At the same time, it sinks inward and protrudes outward to obtain more skin area for lighting and viewing.
There are ski slopes, hiking trails and climbing walls on the top, which reflects the concept of enjoyment sustainability and is in line with Copenhagen’s goal of becoming the first carbon neutral in the world by 2025.

The concept of tropical culture, marine ecology and sustainable development will be integrated to endow buildings with the meaning of life, while mitigating the negative impact of traditional buildings on the environment.

Sustainable building is to solve the negative impact of buildings on the environment and society by using design methods, materials, energy and development space that are harmless to the surrounding ecosystem or community, and abiding by the principles of social, economic and ecological sustainability.
We also selected the representatives with the most green building characteristics, and evaluated them according to the standards to see how they contribute to the ecological environment of the earth to varying degrees.
In the research strategy of “sustainable green future”, based on the actual data of reducing carbon emissions, the sector standards of “low carbon, zero carbon and negative carbon” green buildings are formulated.
Through innovative design, the building’s environmental impact was minimized, making it one of the most sustainable buildings in the world.

Aluminum bricks are stacked to form a continuous facade, so that sunlight can enter the facility through the middle glass window.
Low carbon buildings refer to reducing the use of fossil energy, improving energy efficiency and reducing carbon dioxide emissions throughout the life cycle of building materials and equipment manufacturing, construction and building use.
