Zero energy resort
Grand Cancun designed by Richard’s Architecture + Design
will be the world’s first luxury eco-tourism resort that responds to
energy.
Grand Cancun would become the first marine platform of
positive energy, of the 3,600 negative energy resorts in the Gulf of
Mexico and the Caribbean. It utilizes the platform concept instead of an
artificial island, thus, creating more space yet less impact in the
fragile marine ecosystem. The mega building will be totally
self-sufficient, there will be hotels, convention centers, malls, and
cinemas. It has zero-carbon footprint while providing the city clean
drinking water and energy from renewable resources. But the ultimate
goal is to help clean the seas; the technology used will separate water
from hydrocarbons and floating solids.
