My old neighborhood back in California has taken to building solar panels over all the school parking lots. The solar panels generate enough electricity to power the school, and supply charging stations for electric vehicles. Just like the little rent a bike and scooter programs you see around the world, you use credit cards or some sort of app to pay for charging your vehicle.
I’d love to see them test this model on some of our rec centers. Imagine parking in the shade in the midst of the summer. And having charging stations, for cars and carts would just add to the revenue.
