Seoul's Floating Island Uses Solar Panels
Source: solarnovus.com, 05.18.2011

The Seoul Metropolitan Government in South Korea announced that it will partially open its Floating Island to the public on 21 May 2011.
The island that makes up the sprawling 20,382 square metres (m2), or 219,390 square feet (ft2), has been developed under three key themes: exhibition and convention, culture and aquatic leisure. The 96.4 billion KRW (~$88 million USD) project was funded entirely with private funds. Comprised of three artificial islets, the Floating Island is currently under construction on the Han River near Banpo Hangang Park in Seoul.
• Islet 1, the biggest of the three islets, is three stories high and measures 10,845 m2(116,735 ft2). It includes a 700-seat convention hall on the roof of which solar energy panels measuring 54 m2 (581 ft2) and generating 6 kilowatts (kW) per house of energy each day have been built.
• Islet 2, a three-story structure measuring 5373 m2 (57,834 ft2), is focused on developing facilities for cultural events.
• Islet 3, two stories high, takes up a 4164 m2 (44,821 ft2) area and is devoted to various aquatic leisure sports activities like yachting.
The Seoul Metropolitan Government expects this center to play a pivotal role in advancing its tourism and convention sectors. The total number of seats for exhibitions and conventions will reach 1400 among all three of the islets. The Floating Island is scheduled for completion in September 2011.
