Where are GreenTowers/ Updraft Towers coming up at present?
GreenTowers are to be built in Namibia. The Updraft Tower in Mildura in Victoria, Australia seems to have lost its base of finance. Presently Prof. Schlaich is pursuing a 750 m Updraft Tower in Spain. Interest for GreenTowers has also been shown from many other countries, which can unfortunately not be disclosed at present due to the confidential nature of the negotiations. The first place where an Updraft Tower was to be built (1996) was the Radjastan Province of India. The imminent danger of a war between India and Pakistan made Radjastan the likely battle field. Hence investor’s interest vanished for the time being.
