Terra – The Sustainability Pavilion at EXPO 2020 Dubai

Terra – The Sustainability Pavilion, opened to the public in 2021 as one of the top three attractions of the Dubai Expo 2020, and aims to illuminate the ingenuity and possibility of architecture as society looks to intelligent strategies for future sustainable living.

Drawing inspiration from complex natural processes like photosynthesis, the dynamic form of the Pavilion is in service to its function, capturing energy from sunlight and fresh water from humid air. The relationship of building to site, and to its physical and cultural contexts is critical, as the facility’s strength lies in its capacity to demonstrate a new way of living sustainably in a challenging desert environment.

Sited in a prominent location, the Pavilion structure works in tandem with the considered landscape of demonstration gardens, winding pathways and shaded enclaves to create an aura of magic punctuated by the sights, smells and tactile opportunities of nature. The gardens are both experiential and functional, setting the stage for the exhibition contents within and creating shaded gathering areas that will manage and distribute crowds while providing retail, food and beverage opportunities.

When creating a building with a goal of generating its own energy and water in a harsh climate, the solution cannot be driven by a single aspect of the design. To achieve net-zero, the design required a series of technologies, building systems and design solutions to act in unison. This self-contained, micro-ecosystem resulted from a combination of strategies: optimizing the natural conditions inherent in its location; working with and within them to maximize efficiency; and supplementing them with pioneering sustainable technologies to create innovative solutions

The design is driven by maximizing efficiency which it does by seeking shade in the one place available: below the ground. The Pavilion uses the insulating properties of the earth to shield it from the harsh ambient temperatures which can soar to 50 degrees in the warmer months.

Most of the accommodation is below grade and cased with an earth roof system, creating a substantial barrier to help reduce its cooling loads and conserve energy. The above ground surfaces are clad with a gabion rainscreen wall – sourced with local stone from the Hajar Mountains – which provides enough thermal mass to absorb the heat while the stone’s natural color reflects the sun.

Flora and fauna sourced from the surrounding deserts – including some species that have been never been cultivated by humans – are arranged on the planted roofs and throughout the gardens, creating a water efficient landscape that functions through a series of closed loop systems designed to filter, supply and recycle water. The framing of these local topographical and floral features, combined with the technologies of water recycling and reuse, provide visitors a newfound appreciation of the unique region and its biodiversity. The site also includes areas for productive agricultural landscape featuring halophytic agriculture and other testing beds.

The culmination of the building’s systems can be found in the heart of the Pavilion, its large exterior courtyard. Borrowing from the vernacular of the region, the courtyard provides a large, passively cooled space for visitors. During the design, thermodynamic studies charting the prevailing breezes were used to shape the courtyard to allow desirable cool south-westerly breezes to enter while blocking warmer winds.

Soaring over the courtyard, the Pavilion’s canopy accommodates more than 6,000 sqm of ultra-efficient monocrystalline photovoltaic cells embedded in glass panels. The combination of the cell and the glass casing allow the building to harness solar energy while providing shade and daylighting to the visitors below. The experience in the courtyard is of being beneath a large shade tree with dappled light projecting onto the surfaces below. The form of the canopy works with the courtyard to direct cool air in, while simultaneously exhausting low-lying hot air through a chimney effect at the centre.

The canopy also serves as a large collection area for stormwater and dew that replenishes the building’s water system. The result is a structure that combines the most advanced technology in solar capture and a clear understanding of the natural conditions of the site to actively generate energy while passively cooling and enhancing the experience of the visitor. With over 6,000 sqm of exhibition space, the Sustainability Pavilion will enjoy a long life after Expo is over, transforming into a science museum and expanding on its mission of exploring sustainable practices and the critical stewardship of our fragile planet.

ENERGY E TREES The Sustainability Pavilion is complemented by an installation of Energy Trees which contribute toward its goal of producing its own energy. Nineteen E-trees ranging from 15-18m in diameter are dispersed throughout the site and provide 28% of the energy required to power the building. Inspired by the Dragon’s Blood, a tree found only on Socotra, an island 200 miles off the coast of Yemen, the E-Tree is designed to be a deployable freestanding shade structure that harvests the sun’s energy. The structure is constructed from steel and complex composites and has been optimized to support an 18m photovoltaic array.

Taking further cues from nature, the array follows the sun in the same manner as a sunflower, rotating 180 degrees throughout the course of the day to maximize the energy yield and increase the efficiency of the solar cells, before returning to its original position at night. Bespoke trapezoidal panels composed of highly efficient monocrystalline solar cells, embedded within three layers of glass, provide shade below without casting severe shadows or blocking views to the sky.

Supporting the array is an engineered carbon fibre structure inspired by the design of the steering wheel of a yacht. The structural design maximizes strength in its shape, with radial branches encircled by a compression ring while decreasing the load of the structure itself. Carbon fibre was chosen for its light weight which allows the form to extend unsupported for up to nine meters in all directions.

The E-Trees have become an integral part of both the exhibition and the Pavilion site – showcasing and educating visitors on the research on solar harnessing and panel technology – while at the same time, serving as an integral part of the systems that contributes to a net zero energy goal of the building.

Pangasinense 'esports' athlete to compete in 30th SEA Games

#PHnews: Pangasinense 'esports' athlete to compete in 30th SEA Games

DAGUPAN CITY -- A 24-year-old Pangasinense is set to represent the Philippines in the esports category, a form of competition using video games, in the 30th Southeast Asian Games (SEA Games) on November 30.

Kyle Jepherson ‘Vindicated’ Padlan, a member of the Sibol, the Philippine Esports Team, is one of the seven players who made the final roster to compete in Arena of Valor (AoV).

The Sibol Team is the country’s newest brand of athletes to be fielded by the Philippines in the biennial event.

Padlan is set to take the role of Dark Slayer (DS) Lane, also called the solo/side lane.

Born and raised in Calasiao town, he now works as a network engineer in Metro Manila and who has found himself immersed in esports for the past two years.

In an interview Monday, Padlan said he has participated in a lot of tournaments since his days in Bren Esports, a Philippine-based Southeast Asian professional esports team, most notably for garnering fourth place in the Valor Cup Road to AoV World Cup.

Padlan has been passionate about video games since childhood that drove him to play AoV, and eventually turn it into his sporting career.

“For me it’s just my passion since I was a kid, I just like playing games on every platform I get my hands on,” he recalled.

Being drawn into AoV, his current squad Oro-Digitos breezed through the qualifiers for Sibol AoV, making him eligible to take a shot at the SEA Games.

This year’s SEA Games will be the first time esports will be integrated as a medal sport.

Post SEA Games, win or lose, Padlan has decided to continue engaging in esports both for fun and as a career, while doing his job as a network engineer in Metro Manila.

For their preparations for the upcoming event, the seven-man roster trains for eight grueling hours a day, analyzing hero picks and counterpicks, lane tactics, team strategies, and lane rotation.

“Akala kasi ng iba porke video games, casual na talaga. Hindi. Strategy ito. Ginagamitan ng utak (Other might think this is just video games, its casual but it’s not. This requires strategy. We need to use minds here,” Padlan said.

Padlan shares responsibility with his team in redefining video games and esports in the country, as esports is still being frowned upon by other Filipinos, especially older ones.

“There will always be a negative stigma in esports but in the end, time can only tell how esports will grow here in the country. It will depend on how esports will be marketed,” he added.

Meanwhile, Padlan urged parents to support their children in whatever path they choose, including esports.

Padlan also initially suffered prejudice from his parents due to his indulgence in video games.

“At first they have doubts. But when I started getting recognition, traveling to other places to represent the country in tournaments, they became proud. Eventually, they began supporting me and giving me 100-percent (support),” he disclosed.

However, Padlan reminded the youth to focus and finish their studies.

“Set your priorities straight, if you can make a job out of your passion then go for it, just make sure you won’t regret choosing the path you wanted,” he added.

Padlan graduated from Creative Montessori Center and Francisco Q. Duque Medical Foundation Special Science High School and Saint Louis University in Baguio City in college.

Aside from Padlan, the Sibol Arena of Valor squad consists of Jeremiah ‘1717’ Camarillo, Jevan Lorenzo ‘Bents’ delos Santos, Kevin Kio ‘Gambit’ Dizon, Miguel Klarenz ‘Miggie’ Banaag, Lawrence Anthony ‘Rubixx’ Gatmaitan and Bradie Ryan ‘Yats’ Velasquez. They are coached by Rafael ‘Cyriux’ Albert.

Prior to the SEA Games, members of the Sibol AoV Squad are set for Thailand this October to represent the country in the AoV International Championship (AIC).

AoV is a multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game played through the smartphone.

Published by Tencent games and launched in the Philippines in 2017, AoV has grossed over USD140 million outside China. (PNA)
