More EV chargers, bicycle lots and super-low energy buildings at upcoming Punggol Digital District

The various two very low-energy structures may be located on the SIT school.

One for building, which houses a multi- purpose hall, has windows with “high- performance” glass to minimize solar heat, while the other with a food court uses cross cooling and has a renewable roof that generates renewable energy.

According to JTC, there are plans to install solar panels on numerous rooftops throughout the city to generate more than 3, 000 megawatt-hours of renewable energy annually. This is equivalent to the monthly electricity usage of 11, 000 three-room HDB apartments.

Water will be repurposed for landscape irrigation in bioswales and rainfall gardens. For features can help keep 208, 000 square metres of water periodically, enough to replace 83 Olympic- sized swimming pools, JTC said.

GREEN TECHNOLOGY AND NATURE

An empty digital system that gathers real-time data will be used to power Punggol Digital District.

The program also allows various systems, such as the&nbsp, building control systems, district heating system and a smart power grid, to “talk to one another”, said JTC’s Mr Liew.

For instance, you can regulate the temperature of conference areas based on the ambient temperature and the number of people in the room who have been tracked by CCTV. ” Anything becomes integrated”.
