Solar Forest Brings Shade, Free Electricty and Sci-Fi Trees to Car Parks

Solar_Forest_Neville_Mars1This rather odd scene is the rather groovy and, in my opinion, rather cool Solar Forest concept from Neville Mars.

The nature-inspired design is put forward as a solution for charging electric vehicles and generating solar energy in previously underused parking lots.

So, instead of having car parks being the wide expanse of concrete the Solar Forest will offer shade, free EV charging, solar energy generation as well as bringing some sci-fi trees into the mix.

No bad thing :)
