its 4 chimneys seen from miles away,
it last produced electricity in the early 1980s, but now it
may start producing electricity again, if BIG Architects have their way, they
are proposing that the 4 chimneys use electricity from
pressure, called piezoelectricity, electricity would be stored and
then converted into a lightning show between the 4 chimneys when they are converted into
giant Tesla coils, it is thought that the estimated 50,000 people a day walking through will produce the power needed,
the two pairs of towers are extremely tall relative to
their surroundings and arguably an iconic part of the
neighbouring urban landscape, part of a power plant complex that is nearly
a century old, the Battersea
Power Station will be rebuilding the chimneys regardless, so it is
just a matter of whether they will adopt this enhancement in the process, called
Malaysia Square at night this could really change the night above the capitol,
images of the Tesla coils concept have not been released by SP Setia, the
Malaysian consortium that is developing the power station site, but the one
above was provided by Clarence
Risher, I wonder if electricity produced by this piezoelectricity process could be generated elsewhere in this or other busy capitals?
