One Park Avenue (EP 07 Tower) or East Park 07 Tower is a supertall skyscraper proposed for construction in Dubai, UAE. The building will stand 600 m (1,969 ft) tall with 125 floors.[1][3] The tower will be energy efficient, and will use green building elements, for example by pumping air from the cooler top floors down to the warmer bottom floors.[4] The 125-story building has a curvy design which contains steel ribbons for solar power generation.[1][2] At times, the tower can generate more than enough electricity for itself. The excess energy will be sent to other buildings and the rest of Dubai. EP 07 Tower is just one tower out of the proposed East Park / Atrium City Towers development, which will include as many as five buildings with more than 100 floors, including EP 07 Tower.[4]
