One Of World's Largest Floating Solar Farms: Singapore's Solar Plan | Tomorrow City | Part 2/3

In the next decade, Singapore must confront the interconnected challenges of climate change, a growing population and the need to remain globally competitive on a small island. The solution is to invest in innovative new megaprojects that do more in less space.
This episode tells the story of how engineers designed and constructed one of the world’s biggest floating solar farms on Tengah Reservoir. We show how engineers solve the challenges of a unique environment.
When completed, the energy generated by the Tengah solar farm will help Singapore achieve ambitious new solar targets by the end of the decade. And scientists are looking further into the future. To boost the country’s solar energy output, they are developing the next generation of solar panels and transforming the nation’s power grid.

[@leesweehuat]

7:00, 46:00 Singapore has a large number of water catchment areas, many roof tops, expressways, main roads, canals, islands, car-parks for installing solar panels. Structures can also be built across 2 similarly tall buildings to contain urban hydroponics / aquaponics farms with rainwater collection system and solar panels to reduce urban heat, flooding and power supply problems in Singapore. The positioning of the floating solar panels must be properly designed and modular to faciltate required or expected maintenance, repair or replacement activities. Building geometry, shades & insulating materials do not fundamentally reduce urban heat due to transfer of heat elsewhere in the atmosphere. These should only be secondary activities, not primary activities for reducing urban heat in Singapore. Week-long or month-long analysis of minute to minute solar power generation can be used to estimate level of battery storage required to stablise electricity outputs of the solar panels?

[@bitsnpieces11]

This was meant for the floating solar farm installation instead of wharfs. A lot of fish tend to congregate under or around shady areas, such as oil platforms and docks, so I can imagine these floating platforms will attract many fish especially if there are columns going down into the water to give hiding spots. With what China is doing to Hong Kong I can see Singapore taking over as the shipping center of East Asia. Now they are putting in a lot of wharf space on the water itself.

[@wayned3375]

The urban heat island effect is going to effect every built up area therefore floating solar is amazing to cool water underneath also to collect energy for the near by area. The nearby area needs to cool therefore any buildings not taking advantage of solar roofs can create cool outdoor spaces not by painting roofs a very costly process for multiple buildings, the solution is to find or construct four buildings or more in a ring around outdoor spaces then attach a large bright reflecting material between them like an awning for outdoor spaces and lower level buildings that are underneath this could shade many places and channel rainwater where needed to work much like water collection we currently use.

Singaporeans on average use 170 000 kWh energy. The same number for Europeans for example is 31 000 kWh. This is the other side of the coin. Singapore is a huge energy consumer, and one of the ten cities in the world that emits the most co2 to the air every year.

Also, this happened to me this Monday: I had to go somewhere and because I am eco conscious, I took the bus. I also had to walk to reach my destination. I was sweaty by the time I got back on the bus to go back home. On the bus the air con was going wild, the difference between the outside temperature and inside one was over 10 degrees C. I'd had to sit in these conditions for 30 mins. All sweaty from my walk. Next day I felt weird. Wednesday I had terrible headache. Thursday I had fever. Today, Sunday I feel better, still coughing though. That kind of air con is absolutely unnecessary and harmful. We can do better.

Singapore's total fertility rate is already far below the replacement level. How about you just go and, you know, disappear? Sure will save the rest of us some space and resources.

fertility rate has to be above 2.0 to be called increasing.. you need 2 children to "replace a couple", the mum and dad. Singapore's feritility rate is at 1.3 i think. way below. so without immigration, the population is actually decreasing.
