Silvertown Battery Park is inspired by Saloman House, a fictional scientific institute imagined by Francis Bacon in his 1626 utopian novel New Atlantis, which envisions a future where science and technology improve and enrich quality of life.

The project imagines Silvertown Quays as a scientific testing ground, portraying every possible and impossible technology that could support the local off-grid energy system. Located at the centre of an area undergoing large-scale urban regeneration, Silvertown Battery Park is an innovative energy infrastructure and a vibrant public space for local communities.

The dockland waterscape and the site are turned into a solar panel blanket that captures the energy, and the five battery landscapes store the energy for off-peak usage. The techno-parkscape demonstrates bold and trivial science imagination in a playful and immersive way. The working infrastructure celebrates the industrial history of this area and ushers Silvertown into the next technological era.
