Building solar farms in the desert may have become a common practice, but one new solar plant unveiled on Monday in northern Jordan is anything but ordinary. This 12.9 megawatt plant made up of 40,000 solar panels will provide power to people living in the Zaatari refugee camp, victims of war whose lives were turned upside when the violence reached their doorstep. The solar power plant became the largest ever located inside a refugee camp

Architectural firm People's Industrial Design Office has designed a community garden in Beijing which is transported around the big city by bicycle to give big city dwellers with no access to their own garden a taste of rural farming. The mobile farm, dubbed 'Bike Share Farm', sits on top of two bicycles and can be cycled from place to place. Pipes run across the metal base with holes for potted plants while solar panels provide energy for the watering system.
Chinese solar power company Panda Green Energy recently opened the most adorable green energy solar power plant in the shape of China's national animal, the beloved panda bear. The unique shape of the huge solar farm can only be seen from the air, as shown in drone footage from Datong filmed on Tuesday. Panda Green Energy used a combination of darker monocrystalline silicon and white thin film solar cells to create the unique shape, in what is a world's first for solar farms.
Workers from Bouygues Construction and other companies began to move the New Safe Confinement, or NSC, into position to cover the nuclear reactor at Chernobyl, in order to protect it from leaking radioactive material. The NSC project will replace the original Soviet shell installed after the Chernobyl catastrophe in 1986. The NSC is expected to safely contain Chernobyl's radioactive emissions for the next 100 years.
