PARKING LOT SOLAR CANOPIES: Solar canopies provide welcome shade and shelter from downpours, which helps protect against extreme weather expected to get worse.

ENERGY SECURITY & RESILIENCE: Solar provides energy security and resilience benefits to the community. Peak solar production which occurs in the summer during peak demand reduces load on the local grid, helping to maintain grid stability, especially on sweltering summer days when air conditioners are running high. This helps to build the community’s resilience during heat waves which are projected to get hotter and last longer. In addition, solar with battery storage, solar makes communities more resilient against power outages during extreme weather disasters and possible cyber attacks.
