Summary
Sakuya Konohanakan is one of the largest greenhouses in Japan, with over 15,000 plants and 2,600 different species from all over the world, from tropical to alpine and polar plants. Heating and cooling energy is provided by the water-source heat pump system to control the various climates of each room. The heat-pump system is driven by the electric power generated by the incineration plant, and treated sewage water is used for the heat-source water. Both incineration and sewage treatment plants are located near the greenhouse site. The supporting system for growing plants are a multi-mode passive ventilation system, planting-bed heating and cooling system, and environmental monitoring and data management system. This paper outlines the planning and installation of the systems.
