The images here is the Bahrain World Trade Center and they are not rendered perspectives but real structure built with awesome features. The structure itself is aesthetically awesome but for it to have wind turbines attached to its structure and the addition that these turbines are actually producing and supplying 10-15% power demand for the two towers is incredibly astonishing. Today, this structure is recognize as the world's first wind-powered mega structure.The three 29m-diameter turbine blades on Bahrain’s iconic landmark are
the first in the world to be integrated on such a scale into a
commercial development and are forecast to provide the equivalent of
