Here's a webinar on encouraging more solar panels over parking lots and along highway rights-of-way, a thing I don't care about.
But I do care about shade for people walking and biking, and have always wondered:
*Do the undersides of PV panels give off any absorbed heat?
*Would PV panel porticos over sidewalks/bike lanes/trails offer quality-of-trip benefits along with power generation?

@Shadow This is all very true (and valid). Probably makes it a southern-specific idea. I do wonder if local power generation makes it easier to run low-power pavement warming elements
