I have a background in Environmental Design and Architecture so this Topic is VERY interesting to me. As we move away from toxic fuels what will IDEAL public Energy Stations be like??? A wish list;
1. Power sourced ONLY from a clean and renewable resource - Photovoltaics are my favorite and surplus power could be sold back to the local grid.
2. Proven "Plaza" Design features - Such as shade or sunshine for climate, trees/landscaping, places to sit/gather, water features and a unique sense of "place".
3. Clean Restrooms and water fountains.
4. Adjacent Commercial facilities such as Food, Coffee, Smoothies, Bookstore etc.
5. No petroleum construction Materials - Facility is only made from recycled and or renewables.
6. Payment is automatically authorized by MY car when it is plugged in (WiFi ?) - No CC swiping.
7. LEED Platinum Certification - The facility is a showcase to inform the public in Green Design.
Keep it going!
