Photovoltaic solar panels cover the old dividing wall of the Contemporary Intermediate Archive of Barcelona, ​​in the Llacuna district of Poblenou. The base of the new Garden of the Sun is a plant wall of climbing plants of 560 m2 with new habitats added. The plants are of 12 different species that bloom all year round. Below, an 8,000-liter tank collects rainwater from the roof, which will be used to irrigate the plants. Another part of the dividing wall has been covered with 150 m2 of solar panels that produce electricity for the light consumption of the building and also to run the pump of the drip irrigation system of all the plants. At the foot of the street, an informative panel shows the environmental benefits of the installation and reports in real time on the performance of the photovoltaic solar power plant. The construction of the Jardí del Sol has been carried out by the Municipal Institute of Urban Landscape and Quality of Life, with the collaboration of the Parks and Gardens, the Local Energy Agency, the Cycle service of the Water, the Contemporary Municipal Archive and the Sant Martí District.
