Bahrain🇧🇭, Manama, Bahrain World Trade Center
The Bahrain World Trade Center is a business card of a small but very rich oil state. The 240-meter (787-foot) complex of double towers is located in Manama.
The skyscraper looks very technologically advanced thanks to the blades of three wind turbines mounted on bridges connecting the two towers.
Three wind turbines, with a capacity of 225 kW each, are directed towards the sea, from where the wind blows most often. But even if the wind blows from the other side, for example from the side, or the wind is very weak, the generators will still rotate and generate electricity. The two towers form an air tunnel between them, where the wind increases and creates the necessary pressure on the generator blades. Generators generate about 1 GWh per year, or 15% of the total energy needed by the building.
