Right under our feet … and over our heads
We all may think “How obvious” but it takes people throwing an idea out there to get things moving. Check out this article from August about using the heat from asphalt parking lots to generate energy. Then say something to an elected official about how we need to implement projects that utilize this form of solar energy as we repave out roads and parking lots.
And speaking of solar energy, this more recent article shows that corporate America is starting the process of turning large parking lots into huge solar panel “farms.” The panels may be black but the energy screams “green.” If any company has a parking lot with solar panels overhead and passive solar heat exchanger technology running through the asphalt under the cars, please drop us a note at Info @ this website and we will try to feature your efforts in a future post.
