Singapore’s CleanTech Park to be Ready by 2030


When I saw this news, I am feeling wow!!! this park is very cool. I never thought this park going to be on this earth. There is a really high-tech park because it is Singapore’s first eco-business park for companies involved in clean technologies and sustainable urban solutions. The park is separate with 3 places and the development will take over 20 years. Phase 1 will commence in July 2010 and will provide about business park land when completed in 2018. Phase 2 will be developed from 2019 to 2025, and Phase 3 from 2026 to 2030. The Clean Tech Park(CTP) will house a working population of 20,000 when it is fully built by 2030. This is Singapore’s masterplan, the CTP will be developed as the most sustainable eco-business park in Singapore with the implementation of green strategies and its emphasis on retaining the natural environment and biodiversity. The green strategies in the Clean Tech Park include:
  1. Stormwater management ; The stormwater within CleanTech Park will be channelled into a central wetland.

  2. Sky Trellis; it will be constructed between adjacent buildings and covered with plants. It can open spaces between buildings, it can reduce heat gain by the buildings from the environment.


  3. Conservation of Green Zones; conservation zones are demarcated areas within CTP where trees and plants are conserved.

  4. Protection of biodiversity; animals such as the birds and butterflies to remain within CTP.

  5. Designated Green Corridors; it is green areas between the buildings and land parcels within the park.

  6. Building a Green Community; CTP will nurture the fist green business community and environment such as recycling and car pooling programmes.

  7. Green Features that reduce demand on resource utilization;using recycled and green materials for infrastructure development.

In my idea, there is a good park that buil to help the environment. One day I am going to visit this park. I think Singapore is a small country but they are a huge detail in everything. They are trying to make their own country as a better place for citizens and visitors. Moreover, I hope Thailand will have a good plan like as Singapore does for their citizen.
