Dell Plants Solar Trees in the Parking Lot
Posted on November 3, 2009
Dell is doing it again, this time on-site, with a series of solar trees that will not only help power its headquarters in Round Rock, Texas, but also serve to charge electric vehicles parked there. Of course, there aren’t currently any electric vehicles parking in the Dell lot, but hopefully that will change in the next few years.
The solar trees were put in place by Envision Solar, who’s work we’ve seen at Google headquarters previously. The Dell installation will provide 130,000 kW/h per year and shades the parking spots of the 56 employees who get to the lot first. Everyone else gets punished for being late by having to park in the sun.
