Solar Panels on Façade + Roof (top three floor of each building) Scenario (Case 4: Proposal 3)

Figure 15: 3-D view for the Solar Panels on Façade + Roof

This is an example of solar panels being installed on the roofs and façades of a building (for the last three levels) in combination with enhanced vegetation in the surrounding area (Figure 15). Additionally, the roads are painted in a lighter shade of paint like in the previous proposals. The materials used in the construction of the structures are a combination of a variety of types as per actual conditions, as well as high-reflective materials. In this scenario, the usage of a combination of insulation is also employed. The scenario is identical to what is present in the real model.

Materials Used - Moderate/High Insulation, Plexiglass façade, double/single/heat protected façade + PV panels +terracotta tiles Vegetation – Existing Vegetation with approximate height + increased native vegetation Roads – Asphalt Road with cooling paint Climate Condition – 33.8688° S, 151.2093° E
