What a concept! Yesterday I read TreeHugger’s blog about them, then saw them again last night while watching, “Living With Ed” on HGTV. It makes perfect sense for solar panels to be used as awnings on the sunniest sides of a house or building so that they can do double duty and provide much needed shade as they generate electricity. There are plenty of places to find these amazing solar awnings. We found Namaste Solar to be a good source.
