I was doing my research on solar power installation companies when I chanced upon Yawning Bread’s May 2005 article. In the article, the author compares the state of temperature control in Singapore to “as if we didn’t have a municipal sewerage system, and each family tipped his waste into the street and common areas“. His solution then, is to construct huge, boxy structures cladded in thin-film solar cells which in turn generates the electricity that powers the airconditioning inside. The actual size of such a structure will cover an area of 15-20 hectares, “the size of Suntec City combined with the Conrad Hotel, the Millenia Walk, Millenia Tower.”
