6:30 pm
is up tomorrow. i says living pro active climate protect our future cities next on d w. ah, if you ever have to cover up a murder, the best way is to make it look like an accident. raring to me. you've never read a book like this. to literature list under german must reads with ah, ah, what will our cities look like in the future? shiny dream scapes, science fiction come troop. or
6:31 pm
something else entirely. like to return to nature. cities need to, we borrow all they're not to love history or will destroy it or energy generated there's never been something like this in the middle of a city. this long reusing ruins could help protect the climates. ah, the problem with new construction is the energy required. so, ah, ah, these 2 concrete talis once belongs to the for a be elected coalition bag,
6:32 pm
a stay turned factory for graphite production in what was then east germany. today, the towers, the re kind of pilgrimage site for architecture lovers. the renovation was the brainchild of german architect arno brandon, but he's famous for his innovative ideas. following the renovation, he moved his office headquarters from berlin's meter district to the concrete g d r meg, unless that and in the thought we tend to head down buildings when they no longer serve their original purpose and construct new ones will not. because we think construction generates more revenue and higher returns of when china, every time you demolish a building, and it all the energy that went into building it is lost or just wasted, a place to cause. i'm that nikita that transcript to simplify. imagine half the energy is in the actual burning hot alba, while only half is used for things like heating and cooling. what we generally
6:33 pm
think of as energy usage is with and not combine him button. the energy, it would make more sense to take the entire energy system into account as i was because when you see like that, some, every renovation saves around half the total energy input. because some but laughed at how much was in the health the anchorage. but neither all newton architecture. after all, isn't really disposable concrete, has a considerable carbon footprints and the sand needed for its production. isn't increasingly scarce. commodity cities will do well to begin reusing what's already there. another idea, working with natural materials that can be found near a given construction site. the enzyme gibbs now what's the last of says is holes. and the one that we have the renewable resource would that rudy seeing that countries where would is being grown at delivering to countries with few renewable resources in lender the this leads to it becoming less available in countries where
6:34 pm
it was one teased diagnosed with an offer in the wood initiative of houston. so if we're thinking in terms of the total energy balance or if we need to ask which local materials can be used for construction thinking de la carla has to present oh coolie. the swiss colleague often constructs with clay, they will and he wants to build a clay tower here. keep the, is that the area around berlin has quite a loss of clay in. so you could really try using it for construction, but then reinforcing it to them in such buildings would definitely need more maintenance than one's my, the concrete other than that it could work as unhook fulton in using regional materials and converting buildings wherever possible is a smart solution, nonetheless, some future oriented projects build from the ground up. take toyota and panasonic base companies are constructing entire cities to day to figure out what residents will need to morrow. residents of these living laboratory supply companies
6:35 pm
with data. as the those who make their home in future living berlin, a smart new residential quarter, big it eberhart is the project manager and shuttle living. but then in future living berlin, we want to share what life could look like in the future. wouldn't of this includes generating energy on site that so having keyless access little never and making power sharing easily available. shilling. we've brought all of these aspects together in this project and made the morality them probably by observing how residents use the different services. companies learn which products to focus on. the district has a past station, smart laundromats and storage containers in the basement front doors, elevators, mailboxes and the underground parking garage can all be opened via app. no keys are
6:36 pm
required as of years. and here a 5 car sharing parking spots. we have electric smarts, different models, a 4 seater window, a convertible fuel, and 32 seaters. residents will only be charged for car sharing after the test phase of the residential quarter. future living has ended. ah . meanwhile, the japanese mobility giant toyota is building an entire smart city near the base of mount fuji. ah, a ceremony was held in spring 2021. to celebrate the start of construction. toyota
6:37 pm
president, akio toyota, and woven city ceo james cochner. both took part the cities of the world are suffering a similar problem so far pollution and traffic and safety and technology holds some potential to improve those. and so open city is really meant to be a living laboratory where we can accelerate the development of those technologies and try to learn in this woven city 3 types of pathways will crisscross to form an organic growth pattern. one pathway will be dedicated to automated driving, one to people with personal mobility vehicles and one to pedestrians. the promised safe and efficient mobility thanks to artificial in intelligence. and we can use modern a i to do things that we couldn't do 10 or 20, you are the flow of traffic,
6:38 pm
our personal mobility. what is the optimal placement or location of charging stations to support a population of several 1000 or commuters or residence? woven city is being built on the site of a former toyota plans. initially some $360.00 future enthusiasts will move their a group that includes young families and senior citizens. residents will generate real life data as they move through the city testing new products and services. toyota isn't the only company building test. the cities in japan electronics manufacturer panasonic is inaugurating it's 3rd large scale residential projects group. it's 1st to as fuji, so us sustainable, smart town near tokyo facility. we're not all right, let me grab it. panasonic isn't building gigantic smart cities that are anonymous. but for you, in madeira,
6:39 pm
she's very got everything is designed together with residents, synagogue. good luck to you. 0, this is called a lifestyle based approach and like a degree here you got oh, or whatever it is. and if that lifestyle calls for virtual waterfalls, panasonic is prepared to deliver them. big pans can be tested on a small scale. in laboratory cities per example, an estimated $60000000.00 lanterns world wide could become charging stations for electric vehicles. or they could be distribution points for digital data and services per the lanterns could also be equipped with surveillance cameras or used for traffic management. what sets our laboratory cities apart is that they're never finished away. they're like, we always have an eye on how they're evolving and on what's coming up next to me
6:40 pm
doing. panasonic doesn't do that alone, but in collaboration with residents and partner companies, sewell emergency, panasonic is also working with the smart herb and caught her future living berlin. these photovoltaic, sir, originally from japan, the solar panels energy output is being measured using infrared image is it's one example of the many types of data, smart city supply companies with around the clock or thick myself. let's take a look at the 1st root in the end, what matters is what you do with that data. it may not look like it, but here at the valid our a pass in spain just above barcelona. people are also thinking about future cities . that good be center gala is director a valid our labs, a visionary project by a catalonia and architecture research institutes. his visitor has come from london
6:41 pm
architect to ask a rodriguez once to learn more about vidal labs, which uses practical exercises in this sustainable urban design research. and this is where the students who the 1st exercise is they need to, to do that on furniture. while this is their cattle involved, but this is we did it for all these things and we do, we escalate here, but this is my daughter timber, you know, he is really fantastic. we are doing team of serial number in building, so you're going to be good. we are using the timber that these are all in order to do our total dives. i mean, the new model, the we follow the dotala systems is our city should up sore c o 2 instead of a meteor door. and in order to do it, we need to trust form our buildings. and by that and they should generate energy like as the 3, they generally did their own energy anal. so we should start to grow our foot
6:42 pm
e. we seen the cities or around the cities because. busy a moving seems her on the wall is part of the centralized industrial system of the 20 century. okay, so here you will see different things about the right thought of the year. we bring the pines there. the idea then is to integrate agriculture and industry into the city of tamara. as far as possible, everything should be produced locally, food building materials and energy. this they paved the way to a c o. 2 neutral future de la, the word used for the prototype buildings comes from forest is located right next to the valid our lab need. so every piece of timber has been meticulously, color coded or oh, you see that we paint every song with a different color because we do a g o localization. and then i would a,
6:43 pm
the ice to be very rarely called because then when we see the construction that we do, we can know each piece of timber from which 3 was coming from outside . well, the whole point is eventually we're gonna have to start thinking about a different ways of building that a far more sensitive to the context, far more sensitive to their m province. that's that the, the key word is provenance, ah, that's something that we've not cared about for a very long time. and eventually we're gonna have to look at those big loss towers . and we're going to say, can we actually continue to do that? the provenance of energy has also become an important topic in climate friendly future cities. energy would no longer be imported that produced within the city through photovoltaics, wind, and hydrogen technology light here in essence, and germany. in the near vest stat green hydrogen will soon be produced right below
6:44 pm
residential buildings. officials from should, at god's regional council, are about to visit the site the unlike the society at 1st was man, this type of facility is something you'd expect to see in an industrial area upsets on there. there's never been something like this in the middle of a city stop katya. mit i was like crossing a new frontier and that's what makes this project so special on us today. the final inspection has taken place varnished up. the regional council was coming to the side to take a look. now their construction is complete. about 200 quasi milan, project managers him on marks greets the council members. remind me of the officials explain what they need to see. and the grade penson performs it all, plus the green hydrogen concept is designed to be sustainable. photovoltaic systems on the roof deliver the electricity, the palace,
6:45 pm
the electrolyzer. this produces hydrogen by splitting water into component molecules. it's located in the basement right next to the parking garage. the plan is to store this hydrogen and use it to power a heavy duty delivery trucks. but the system does more than that. electrolysis also generates heat, which will contribute to supplying the neighborhood with warm water and heating that hydrogen is a highly reactive element. so it's important to ensure the system fulfills all safety requirements. professor no, but fish notes that the tough an independent body that tests technical systems didn't join the inspection. no one from the truth came by. it was just the regional port fish's the project scientific director and one of its im vestment now. yes, so they still want to see the inspection certificate by the took them over. so fluoride fluoride. let us let us hydrogen is seen as
6:46 pm
a fuel of the future. and germany is investing more than 8000000000 euros in hydrogen projects, to make it marketable by 2023 done from goods to salvazar orders on africa. so i think it was a successful day for us. megan green, hydrogen is considered to be particularly sustainable. but to power vehicles with hydrogen, you also need power units and a network of hydrogen filling stations. this is still a long way off. the most unfair for hours with a passenger cars. one kilogram of hydrogen will get you around 100 kilometers as if it couldn't. so without bailey production gone, $400.00 cars could drive a 100 kilometers per day when the kilometer. just to give you an idea of what you can do with one kilogram of hydrogen on kito camp with trucks,
6:47 pm
you need more inquiries on to the 40 tom truck on each round for 5 kilos for a 100 kilometers kilogram. feel 100 kilometers. ah. these days marketing green ideas is easier than it was even a few years ago. from 2011 to 2015 percent to go out was barcelona city council architects, his ideas contributed to the city growing into a muddle of successful urban development in europe. that 20 years ago, des, new frontier was how to merge the digital wall with cities architecture are notable names. but now, or we know how these, these are the future will be the new frontier right now is how we merge cities with nature. so how cities become part of their nature,
6:48 pm
how cities are following their principles, hopefully not without systems in order to promote life. to achieve this boss alone is still has a long way to go. signs of the early ninety's when the city hosted the olympic game, nondescript architecture and little greenery, but just a short distance away. one of barcelona is landmarks. the total glory s by french star architect gene new vein. 3 busy automobile rates used to intersect here. now, visitors walk through the park far off. what we have been doing in the last years is demolish in the highway. and in fact, making a park because if you want to do a new underwear naturalization, do need to start out from their core. if you do hear, everyone will understand that you can apply these ideas everywhere. now,
6:49 pm
the architect is banking on a very old building. material for the future. would piece just been awarded the contract for social housing projects. it will be the largest wooden building in spain. ah, glad to change the next generation of sustainable architect here in the valid our lab. a new group has just arrived. the students come from 18 different countries, be center galant, introduces them to his by of cities concept. we're going to start who walk the what will be our okay, old self sufficient secular systems as the basis for a new, a vanity. the concept draws inspiration directly from nature. if you are london something you'll get a fathers and ally with her father's here because all of the was out of the culture
6:50 pm
blood. yeah. the bricks to make the house while one in the southern there was kind of self sufficiency because they weren't taken dead air from here. the water from here and the fire from the forest. yeah. almost. birth such as you are looking to the future. if we are not looking to the past year, we are look into the future because it do abandon a city. what you will get will be a forest because it far as good old because odd. it kind of introduce itself, the fathers do not absorb c o 2. while this is a mid seo tool, you know, they're, the foreigners had using natural resources like the sun energy. so we like to make a building like trees and cities like forest cities need to be part of their not to the history or will destroy everything. so the new that we need to learn how to make our living in that a month, not just copying the nature 90,
6:51 pm
but following the rules of the natural systems. the by your see, these are the cities that follow the rules of their natural systems. and this is what we want to do. lot traces of a medieval settlement on the site suggest a palace and a monastery. they were living here only 20 years. and we're still need to find the chart that they somewhere there by a cities should be largely self sufficient. this will dismantle global supply chains as the cities of tomorrow will find what they need in their immediate surroundings. we need to bring back the pollution to the city centers, but we need to do following some other rules. so from that point of view, we think that the future is about being connected globally with vicious, dull networks, but been productive locally. i making energy making for that making material using 3 printing to these new process of industrialization in spring 2021. the
6:52 pm
spanish architect, one, the contract for shown on a huge new development near bay ging his bio city will bring farming inside the urban limits. work energy production, water recycling for the center while lat, everything belongs under the same race or better still under many waves. ah, will cities of the future function as well as village communities of the past? and could we really make do without constructing new buildings from the ground up, german architect town, and randal hoover is open to new ideas. this one, the ema li girl, wanted to public. this was a former underwear factory,
6:53 pm
but so they made what were known as the loved killers, leap ripped women's undergarments with 3 elastic bands with tri gametes, who exiled in place of these 2 production buildings on which together had a good 1000 square meters in jose. you could have pl, 3 single family houses with a 100 square meters. each cabinet can, does that. replacing a 1000 square meters with 300 square meters as a bad tray doses. so often when you preserve building before you, when double m a because you save yourself the demolition costs and you gain the shell and, and thus preserve all the energy that went into creating it has been strict tamika alchen. an implant isn't best anti villa is a spectacular example of sustainable building. p thing is provided by geothermal energy and a chimney. the anti villa also incorporated an old fashion trick to reduce heating needs. the 2nd school before i see that you can see
6:54 pm
the curtain royal here in that in for we hang a curtain in winter. so that means the area that needs to be heated is much smaller line of 80 square meters in winter, or well heated behind the curtain and a much larger living area from spring to fall through of herbs. this technique is commonly used in the past. people would live closer together and thus reduce the living space that requires heating. if the more flexible approach to using spaces and one we may well be returning sale in the future. like on this and this is ms. anders. this building wasn't especially beautiful in quotation marks, either that, but that is something important to keep in mind when dealing with existing buildings of song, as tate, you shouldn't follow static ideas and ask, how can this be beautiful north hold? what? no, should you only plan to one use in the future? households on it instead is a, let's think about many possible purposes and study the building structure until the
6:55 pm
solution presents itself and under sets in that the loser of this leads to a picture called which as long as it's coherent, if it is also beautiful in this loses his globe id and if we think anything coherent, develops its own beauty and frequent and i, but it's not beauty you would have had in your mind, does an image beforehand. so the work of, ah, not building from scratch is one step towards meeting climate targets. the e. u wants to be climate neutral by 2050. germany wants to achieve this goal in 2045 ah, reaching these goals will require a lot of sacrifice. cities of the future cannot consist of sparkling new concrete and glass palaces for us to continue to prosper. we must stop harming our planet. and then we find that our future cities are good places to live in.
6:57 pm
