Solar Parking Meters from Portland
Parking meter has become a mandatory tool in several countries to control parking on the roadside. In Portland, they have used parking meter that powered by the sun as a source of energy. In addition to use it without electricity, metered parking is also provide more flexibility in making payments that can use a coin, credit cards or smart cards. This tool also can “recharge” your smart card when you want to purchase more parking time. [Via]

Tensile Solar by SMIT
Brooklyn design company SMIT (Sustainable Minded Interactive Technology) has created Tensile Solar, a cool and lightweight shade powered by the sun (through CIGS photovoltaic cells).
From Wikipedia:
Copper indium gallium (di)selenide (CIGS) (CAS NO. 12018-95-0) is a I-III-VI2 compound semiconductor material composed of copper, indium, gallium, and selenium. The material is a solid solution of copper indium selenide (often abbreviated “CIS”) and copper gallium selenide, with a chemical formula of CuInxGa(1-x)Se2, where the value of x can vary from 1 (pure copper indium selenide) to 0 (pure copper gallium selenide). It is a tetrahedrally bonded semiconductor, with the chalcopyrite crystal structure, and a bandgap varying continuously with xfrom about 1.0 eV (for copper indium selenide) to about 1.7 eV (for copper gallium selenide). It is used as light absorber material for thin-film solar cells.
Tensile Solar is come in various designs: saddle, tent, pole mount and the last is intended to a larger architectural structures, such as a party tent.

Taiwan’s Solar Powered Stadium
Toyo Ito has completed construction on Taiwan solar powered stadium upon a clear area of approximately 19 hectares, nearly 7 hectares has been reserved for the development of integrated public green spaces, bike paths, sports parks, and an ecological pond.
It will generate 100% of its electricity from photovoltaic technology (14,155 sq meter solar roof and 8,844 solar panels). It is able to provide enough energy to power two jumbo vision screens and the stadium’s 3,300 lights that illuminate the track, field and 50,000 seats.

Spark by Beverly Ng
Hopefully, we humans have learned our lesson, limited fossil fuel and electricity, and the time has come to change our lifestyles and the way we think, how we take things for granted. The time has come to bring radical changes in our daily lives, and realize that doing the little things make a difference. Every person in the world can contribute in their own way towards the environment.

Solar Forest by Neville Mars
Neville Mars has developed an electric vehicle charging stations which take the form of solar trees. Photovoltaic grove serves dual functions, acting as a go to clean renewable energy sources while providing a shady place to park the cars as they charge.
Individual trees in the forest consists of a series of photovoltaic leaf mounted on a tree branch. There is electrical outlet at the base of each trunk that can be used to charge your electric vehicle. [Via]

Solar Lawn Mower by Studio Volpi
Studio Volpi is a small design studio based outside of Milan who has developed a lawn mower which is supported entirely by solar power. Design concept is to change the gas mower ate a lot today, into a much quieter and smaller “park cleaner”. This electric mower would be quiet, lightweight and cheap. Grip will fold down to make it even more compact and simple design would makes it easy to operate. Solar panels sitting on the mower top and save energy in the system of removable polymer-ion battery. [Via]

Solar Inside – The Solar Powered Bench
Seating is the main purpose of a bench. However, modern people do something more on the bench. Waiting for someone to become one of the new functions. Design of bench freed itself from tradition. This is a new approach of thinking what the bench is. While the traditional role, this bench becomes WiFi hot-spots and night-lighting with a thin film solar battery. In addition, made of aluminum and recycling plastic considered eco-issues.

Top 5 World’s Largest Solar Power Plants
1. Olmedilla Park Solar Power Plant
(in Olmedilla de Alarcón, Spain, 60 MW) Finished in September 2008. This power plant uses 162,000 average photovoltaic solar panel to deliver 60 MW of electricity on a sunny day. The whole factory was completed in 15 months at a cost of about 530 million U.S. dollars current exchange rate. Olmedilla built with conventional solar panels, which are made with silicon and tend to heavy and expensive.
2. Puertollano Park Solar Power Plant
(Spain, 50 MW) in 2008 Renovalia develop the power station in Puertollano, Ciudad Real, residential energy parks with an installed capacity of 50 megawatts (MW). The power generated here is equivalent to the annual domestic consumption of electricity of about 39,000 households. The energy produced here will replace the theoretical disposal 84,000 tons CO2/year or 2.1 million tons of CO2 over 25 years during the production.
3. Moura Solar Power Station
(Portugal, 46 MW) Completed December 2008. This solar power plant is placed in the municipality of Moura, Alentejo, Portugal, one of the sunniest areas in Europe and besides one of the most economically depressed. The construction involves two stages, first with a built in 13 months and completed in 2008, and the rest will be completed in 2010, with a total cost of € 250 million for the project. The power plant will have an installed capacity of 46 mwp, by more than 376,000 solar panels. Nearly 190,000 panels (32 MW) installed in permanent structures, 52,000 (10 MW) in a single-axis trackers, which follow the sun in the sky, and further 20 MW of power capacity will be added during phase 2 project. This will occupy an area of 320 hectares (130 acres), producing 88 GWh of electricity per year.
4. Waldpolenz Solar Park
(Germany, 40 MW) 550,000 First Solar thin-film CdTe modules. Completed in December 2008 Waldpolenz Solar Park, which is the world’s largest thin-film photovoltaic (PV) power system, built at a military air base east of Leipzig in Germany. The power plant 40-megawatt solar power system using state-of-the-art thin film technology. 550,000 First Solar thin film modules are used, which supplies 40,000 MWh of electricity per year. The investment costs for solar parks Waldpolenz Euro 130 million.
5. Arnedo Solar Plant
(Spain, 36 MW). Completed in October 2008, power plant that produces 34 GWh per year, which would own 12,000 households and prevent 375,000 tons of CO2. Facilities in seven acres and 172,000 panels houses. Project budget of about € 180,000,000. La Rioja, a region of Spain known for its wine, already covers 62% of electricity with enhanced resources.
