The structure to mount the panels will make a perfect nesting spot for birds that will poop all over your car.

Dear People, When you make a negative comment please fact check before writing. Google parking solar images and you will see that most cars fit well under the solar structure. So unless pigeons learn to put a spin on their poop you are safe.

Parking lots would also make an ideal location for a charging station for electric cars. When the lots are empty, feed the solar power into the grid and run the meter backwards. When lots are full, draw power FROM the grid, running meters normally but wiyh a financial offset/credit from running the meters backwards. Payment can be by card-swipe per minute of charging. When parking is only short-term the battery will not be filled tocapacity, but at least a little boost can be had. Anyone know te total squre footage of suitable parking lots in this Country?
