"Solar
  City Tower ," built atop the island of Cotonduba ,

will
  be the welcome symbol to the 2016 Olympic
Games
  in Rio de Janeiro .

It will be seen by the game visitors and
  participants as
they arrive by air or water.

The tower,
  captures solar energy. It will supply energy
for all of the
  Olympic city, as well as also for part of Rio .


It
  pumps up water from the ocean to create what
appears like a
  water fall and this fall stimulates
turbines
  that produce energy during the night.

It will also hold the
  Olympic flame.
