Solar power is no longer just about slapping photovoltaic eyesores on existing rooftops to harness a bit of extra sun energy. Nowadays, people are finding unique ways to integrate solar energy into architectural, vehicular and even fashion designs from the beginning. Moreover, some innovators have even figured out ways to make structures entirely energy independent by combining various alternative energy sources. When solar was first introduced it was an auxiliary power source – now we have cars, boats, planes and even entire buildings that run on solar power. From the world’s first energy autonomous vehicle to solar balloons, arcs, lily pads and even bras here are some of the most clever contemporary solar designs.

The world today is facing two kinds of crisis; the one is the energy and second is the land. Due to lack of land and increasing population, lots of skyscrapers have sprawled up and each one has tremendous power needs. The sustainable energy architectures can solve this problem fully. Since these skyscrapers are very tall, a lot of wind energy and geothermal energy can be harnessed from them using wind turbines on roof and water turbines on the ground. Here we have listed 15 of such green building:

Wind Powered Rotating Skyscraper

Residents of Dubai may one day experience a unique and constantly changing skyline thanks to Dynamic Architecture’s wind powered rotating skyscraper. The main idea behind their concept involves a central concrete core surrounded by 59 independently rotating levels. The skyscraper would generate its own electricity from the massive horizontal wind turbines that would be stacked in between each floor. This idea may seem outlandish or impossibly expensive, but the oil price boom in Dubai has already funded many other similarly massive and complex architectural projects. If oil prices continue to increase these rotating wonders may be seen on Dubai’s horizon within the next few years.
