Could a successful business model be developed for a company that manufactured awnings that could be suspended over individual parking spaces? I’m not sure who the market would be, but I do know the sun is the enemy of a paint job as well as the rubber and plastic parts that we use to build automobiles. I also know that capturing the sun’s non-renewable power with solar panels is a potentially huge energy policy improvement. I can image a fairly simple structure of cantilevered tubing and a fuel cell attachment that could feed that parking spot occupant’s battery cell.
This approach could be: a pay lot scenario where you are buying fuel as well as a place to leave your car; the effort of “greener” corporations to do their share to reduce emissions and employee dependence on fossil fuels; or possibly even the contribution of an individual willing to finance their own parking spot’s canopy as a contribution to the growing push towards a more environmentally responsible form of consumerism.
