Google Swathed in Solar Panels

Google has covered all the buildings on it’s campus in solar modules. 9,212 of them to be exact.
My favorite part about this is that they didn’t just stop at doing the rooftops, they also covered the parking lots:
To gain even more solar surface area, Google installed solar panels as “shades” over several of its parking lots, keeping cars cool and generating power at the same time.
