Bike parking features solar panel system.
The fact that Nordic countries, especially Denmark, have shown a peculiar fondness to environmental friendly bike transportation over decades has inspired Spanish architectural designer Nazli Yucel to design a basic, bike-parking concept for the iconic city of Copenhagen. The concept project will feature a solar panel system, which is integrated within the bike park structure for renewable energy generation.
Copenhagen usually gets 1,630 hours of sunshine a year. If some of it is harnessed through the bike parking system under discussion, it could generate sufficient solar energy to nosh some of streetlights and traffic lights of the city.
