Solar-Powered, Wi-Fi Bus Stop @ San Francisco

0 comment

The sleek, undulating roofs of San Francisco’s recently unveiled proto­type bus stops are not just artistic flourishes. These street shelters use rooftop solar panels to power Wi-Fi routers and interactive information panels. Unused energy is pumped into the city’s grid.  By 2013 the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency plans to install 360 of the new stops around the city.
