Powering the Pyramids of the future
August 19, 2008
Dubai-based Timelinks, a pioneering environmental design company, is to unveil a city of the future at the upcoming Cityscape Dubai which takes place at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre from 6-9 October 2008. The city – called the Ziggurat project – will be in the shape of a futuristic pyramid which, according to Timelinks, could support an entire community of up to one million people by harnessing the power of nature. Ridas Matonis, Managing Director of Timelinks, said: “Ziggurat communities can be almost totally self-sufficient energy-wise. Apart from using steam power in the building we will also employ wind turbine technology to harness natural energy resources.”
