Stadium Franco Sensi: Romes Solar-Powered Stadium

sustainable design, green design, green architecture, alternative energy, green building, stadium, franco sensi, rome, solar

Forget decorative crystalline stadium skins; Gino Zavanellas recently unveiled stadium is completely plastered in energy-generating photovoltaic panels. Stadium Franco Sensi, set to be built in Rome, Italy, will feature a museum of Romes football team, restaurants, lounges, and bars in addition to regular stadium seating.

On the outside, the stadium looks like an energy-guzzler a massive band around the perimeter will blast messages via a LED screen but in reality, Stadium Franco Sensi is actually very efficient. An outer zinc-titanium membrane shell on the stadium will feature one layer covered by solar photovoltaic panels, as well as a second translucent layer that lets in 80% of all light while preventing water from hitting stadium patrons. No word on how much power the panels will produce, but they should power the stadiums LED lights at the very least.

Im sure the renders dont do it any justice as I think it looks hideous, yet admire the approach of an energy productive facade.

Heres another, its one of the new stadiums for the Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea

This stadium reminds me alot of the SFS how the sweeping roof emerges from the surrounding landscape.

I wonder if we were lucky to win the World Cup bid, if there would be a new showpiece stadium built and what would it look like. There are some amazing stadiums being built for the SA WC next year and have been some incredible stadiums built for the previous World Cups. Would we have a new amazing stadium or would we use Stadium Australia as our showpiece?

Sean, does it say where in Rome they're actually building that stadium??

 

[Sean]

It will be built in the Aurelia district of Rome (55,000-seater stadium in the western outskirts of the city)

Hmmmmm - out of the way (West of the Vatican), but not in the same way the Olimpico is (i.e.  this new one is actually near public transport).  Interesting.

Do Roma and Lazio draw their support from different parts of the city or all over the shop ?

Is this new one just for Roma ? (they share atm don't they?)

 

[Sean]

Yeah they share, but the new Stadio Franco Sensi is just for Roma. Not too certain about where they draw their support from but.

Differing parts - Lazio are working class/from the suburbs, and Roma are elitist/city based Berlusconi supporting pigs.

If anyone can read Italian I'd be interested to know what bullshit is written about the build up to this game at the bottom of the page.

Sift through that - it's not perfect but you get the idea.

 

[Arabmariner]

Cheers.....interesting.

We're going a bit off the topic now but just to fill you in a bit.......have a look at the photos of the Roma players with Jim McLean (our coach) after the game and enlarge the photo of the crowd just below that and read the banners on the fence.

The final that year was in Rome and after these c**ts lost the first leg they were desperate.They went back to Rome and whipped up a frenzy in the media claiming we were on drugs and making up false quotes from McLean slagging off the Italians.Their President through a third party,it emerged 3 or 4 years later attempted to bribe the ref (who knows if it had any effect) and they got a wrap on the knuckles from a piss weak UEFA.

The thing is they probably didn't have to go to those extremes anyway.They were a good side and the atmosphere would have been intimidating anyway.We were a young side and just didn't perform or cope with the occasion.I knew a couple of guys who went to that game.....they were lucky to get out alive.

The c**ts got what they deserved when Liverpool beat them in the final on their own pitch.

Anyway got that out the system.

Sorry for hi-jacking your thread Sean

Football related violence and fans being attacked??  In Rome??  No _way_......  :-\

The new location of this stadium near a metro can only lead to more trouble to be honest - as is, the only way to get to the Olimpico on a game day is by walking (buses and trams drop you off just across the Tiber on the South Side) so the police can control the crowds.

Having to control trains, buses, taxi's and walking crowds in this new location??  Good luck with that (Italian police are either over-reactive thugs or they just don't give a shit).

both sides are right-wing nutjobs, if lazio ultras don't support berlusconi it's because he's too much of a jelly legged socialist for their tastes, and they'd rather see il duce back.

bruce stadium, purely for the fact its built in ground, add complete roof and it would be electric atmosphere, the first stad, shown looks like a broken toilet
