Since one of our goals is to help Lund become climate-neutral by 2030, sustainability is a central priority in every step of our work, especially when constructing new facilities. To reduce the climate impact of\u00a0Niels Bohr\u00a0and promote a sustainable future, we set out early in the process to make use of existing resources by incorporating reused materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Wind Turbine Blades?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The idea of using wind turbine blades came from the project\u2019s architect, Jonas Lloyd. These blades are made of thermoset plastic and fiberglass, making them difficult to recycle. In many countries, old blades are either buried or incinerated when they can no longer be used in wind turbines. According to the Swedish National Audit Office, discarded wind turbine blades risk becoming a significant waste problem in Sweden too, unless new uses are found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to the blades\u2019 strong and durable materials, they can be creatively and innovatively repurposed as facade elements. By decorating the parking facility with them, we aim not only to breathe new life into the blades but also to draw attention to the growing challenge Sweden faces as the first generation of wind turbines begins to be decommissioned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The initiative is a collaboration between LKP, Lloyds Arkitektkontor, Hifab, Kingo, and Vattenfall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Innovative Energy Solutions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to its reused facade, the new parking facility will feature solar panels on the roof that power the building\u2019s charging stations. It will also include battery storage to retain solar energy for use on days when sunlight is limited\u2014ensuring no energy goes to waste. This local energy collection and storage help reduce the overall energy consumption in the area. What sets the\u00a0Niels Bohr\u00a0facility apart is that its battery capacity will be twice as large as that of our other mobility hubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"background: #f9ecc7; padding: 6px 25px;\">\n<p><\/p><h4 style=\"font-size:22px !important;\">More About Niels Bohr<\/h4><p><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The building will have 6 floors with approximately 265 parking spaces.<\/p> \n<p>\u2022 About 40 of the spaces will offer charging stations for electric vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The stairwell will be glass-enclosed, contributing to a bright and open atmosphere along with the dynamic pattern created by the turbine blades on the facade.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 In addition to the blades, the facade will also feature green walls, enhancing biodiversity and greenery in the area, absorbing carbon dioxide, and supporting stormwater management.\n<p>\u2022 Architect: Lloyds Arkitektkontor\n<p>\u2022 Contractor: W\u00e4stbygg <\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Address: Marie Curies all\u00e9 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At LKP, we strive to be at the forefront of developing innovative&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":7482,"parent":4923,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-templates\/innehalls-page.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-9200","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"featured_image_urls_v2":{"full":["https:\/\/lkpab.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Fasad-Niels-Bohr.jpeg",1600,900,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/lkpab.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Fasad-Niels-Bohr-150x150.jpeg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/lkpab.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Fasad-Niels-Bohr-300x169.jpeg",300,169,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/lkpab.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Fasad-Niels-Bohr-768x432.jpeg",640,360,true],"large":["https:\/\/lkpab.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Fasad-Niels-Bohr-1200x675.jpeg",640,360,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/lkpab.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Fasad-Niels-Bohr-1536x864.jpeg",1536,864,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/lkpab.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Fasad-Niels-Bohr.jpeg",1600,900,false]},"post_excerpt_stackable_v2":"<p>At LKP, we strive to be at the forefront of developing innovative and sustainable parking solutions.
