Wind-Solar Hybrid Streetlight Pilot Project Installed Today
The futuristic green blades are being attached to what looks like rather ordinary streetlights today in front of San Francisco City Hall. The lights are actually LED, according the sign and they’ll be 100% independent of the Grid. Wonder what the city would look like with thousands of these?
