Your proposal to use existing spaces in Bucharest to install hydroponic greenhouses is innovative and has great potential for positive impact on the local community. As you mentioned, this project could solve several problems at once, offering benefits to both property owners and city residents.
Given the complexity of the project and the need to convince homeowner associations to accept the transformation of storage spaces into hydroponic greenhouses, it's important to have a well-structured plan and solid arguments to persuade them of the long-term benefits of this project.
To make the project more attractive to homeowner associations, you can elaborate on a detailed cost-benefit analysis, highlighting water and energy savings, as well as the potential income generated from selling products grown in the greenhouses. Additionally, you can present examples of other similar successful projects in other cities that could serve as models for implementation in Bucharest.
It's important to involve the local community in the decision-making process and provide them with the opportunity to express their opinions and concerns about the project. This way, you'll be able to better identify the needs and expectations of residents and adjust the project accordingly.
Collaboration with experts in the field, such as Ms. Adriana Sfetcu and Mr. Bogdan Iordache, is essential to ensure the success of the project. They can provide advice and expertise in horticulture and help choose the most suitable plant species for hydroponic cultivation under local conditions.
For research, we used the internet and obtained many useful pieces of information from Wikipedia as well as from websites dedicated to hydroponics. We discussed the project with our colleagues from the Inventika Sensor ON robotics team, with schoolmates, and with our parents, who helped and supported us, including during the construction phase. We intend to improve our project by adding more automated systems: temperature control and display, lighting period control, humidity, and interior temperature. The results of our work can be used to create an organization that promotes this project to homeowner associations and building administrators in Bucharest, and we hope they will help in better utilizing the constructed spaces.
