Electrum and Łukasz Więcek Present: Electrum Eco Hive

Electrum Eco Hive: The City of the Future

Electrum Group, a leading Climate Tech business in Poland, presents a unique project: Electrum Eco Hive – a city of the future built by Łukasz Więcek using over 50,000 LEGO bricks. The creator is the runner-up of the first edition of LEGO Masters Poland. Electrum Eco Hive is designed as a unique city where new climate and energy technologies harmonize with the residents’ way of life.

 

Electrum Eco Hive was unveiled on April 23rd at the Epi-Center of Science in Białystok, where it will be a permanent exhibit. 

 

“The city is designed to be independent of traditional, coal-based energy sources. Instead, it features renewable solutions such as wind turbines, solar farms, agrivoltaics, and floating panels on lakes. Residents of smart buildings, users of public transport, urban infrastructure, and smart factories in Electrum Eco Hive benefit from clean, green energy,” explains Jan Roguz, Brand Business Partner at Electrum.

The architectural concept of the project is based on nine interactive modules aimed at presenting innovative urban planning approaches and showcasing the diversity of renewable energy technologies. The goal of the Electrum Eco Hive initiative is to educate about a future where clean and safe energy sources, used intelligently, become the foundation of our daily lives. 

 

“Collaborating on Electrum Eco Hive is a unique experience in my career. Although it still involves LEGO bricks, the project differs from my previous endeavors. Building an entire interactive city is undoubtedly a huge construction challenge. Each module is highly diverse and required a lot of commitment and attention from us. The project addresses a very current and significant topic. I am proud that our joint work with Electrum will inspire future generations to take action for environmental protection,” says Łukasz Więcek about working on Electrum Eco Hive.

Where to See Electrum Eco Hive? 

 

Electrum Eco Hive will become a permanent feature of the energy lab, part of the Main Exhibition at the Epi-Center of Science. It is a perfect complement to the multimedia model of Białystok presented there, showing the scale of heat and electricity production from a traditional combined heat and power plant and from Białystok’s waste incineration plant. 

 

“I am very pleased that the Electrum Eco Hive model will be showcased at the Epi-Center of Science in Białystok. We hope this unique installation will inspire both the youngest and adults to actively engage in shaping the sustainable future of our cities. Building with LEGO bricks often reminds us of using instructions to create a specific model. In the case of the Electrum Eco Hive model, we are dealing with an out-of-the-box and exceptionally creative project. Similarly, the world of modern technologies and innovative solutions is driven by the unconventional discoveries of scientists and the ideas of technology industry representatives. We warmly invite everyone, including those from more distant parts of Poland, to visit the Epi-Center of Science in Białystok and explore Electrum Eco Hive,” comments Marek Jurzysta, the manager of the Epi-Center of Science in Białystok. 

 

Electrum Eco Hive is an educational adventure about renewable energy sources and sustainable development. The Electrum Eco Hive city will serve as a tool for children and teenagers, introducing them to the world of modern, eco-friendly technologies that align with their lifestyle. 

 

Electrum plans to organize a series of educational workshops that will reach various centers across Poland to impart knowledge about sustainable development to the youngest generations through one of the world’s best playthings: LEGO.
