Does this include parking garages?
This has already happened in France and I’m loving it. The new solar panels over the parking provide shade, keep the rain off, power EV charging stations, send power back to the grid and some of them channel the rain water back into the system instead of letting it escape as unmanaged run-off. Paid for by the parking owners (mostly supermarkets). It’s a good policy that would not have happened spontaneously by free market forces alone.
I can’t fathom how the free market doesn’t choose this in the first place. Run that power back to your store, win. And even if the cost/return-over-life doesn’t pay out 100%, the increase in customers sure will.
There is regulation about rainwater management for parking lots as well.
Parking lots manager are required to setup systems to let the rainwater infiltrate the soil
Hey there’s a fucking idea
