Why putting #solarpanels beside #highways is a no-brainer!
#California could generate enough #electricity to power 270,000 homes by putting solar panels in the empty land next to highway interchanges in just 3 Southern California counties.There is a lot of “dead” space between highways, which is currently not used for much of anything. It’s not a usable space for wildlife, either, due to the proximity of so many cars. These locations are often near #transmissionlines
